Within the magazine, changes have been plentiful. Since photographs were a major expense, the first issue had only eleven cuts, five of them pencil sketches. In the seventh issue the department of "Finance" became "Business & Finance." "Crime" became a subdivision of "National Affairs" (1925); "Aeronautics" part of a new department, "Transport" (1934).

Because the tickets had been punched out and recorded, Lonnie...
Immortal No. 14, whose career, like most baseballers', has been a poignant illustration of the old baseball adage-a hero in the third inning may look like a bum in the seventh-was last week swapping tales with local barflies in the Empire Hotel at Springfield, Ill., when he was informed of his fortunate rescue from obscurity. One of the most effective right-handed pitchers of all time, Grover Cleveland ("Old Pete") Alexander, now 50, could review a career that reached its third inning in the 1926 World Series (between the Cardinals and Yankees) when, after a night...
