...Argentine people were prepared for the worst when President Pedro Aramburu and Finance Minister Roberto Verrier went on the air last week-and the worst is just what they got. In blunt introductory remarks, the President lambasted both "egotistical businessmen" and workers who believe "that the supreme social achievement is well-paid laziness." Then he turned the microphone over to Economist Verrier, who told the story in terms of pesos. Argentina, according to the minister's figures, is consuming and featherbedding its way to 'bankruptcy...
...Wait till you see Playhouse go" matronly Party Giver Perle Mesta was telling everybody in Hollywood last week. "You'll feel sorry for me." Perle was right, but for the wrong reasons. She had hoped to de-emphasize her reputation as a gay social lioness.

Required concurrently: anthropology and social psychology. The third year would be similar but more advanced; at its end, students would get a B.A. ¶ Limit the fourth year to medicine, then add a fifth year, in which the student would simultaneously serve a rotating internship (i.e., switching from one type of hospital service to another...
...Ruled that students will have to take at least five history courses and one related course. At the present, they must take four history courses; an introductory course from Economics, Government, or Social Relations; and either another history course or a related corse from any field. It is the "required related" course from Economics, Government, or Soc Rel, which is being dropped. 3) Formalized an existing practice by requiring that students take one full course (or two half-courses) from each of three of its four areas of History (the Americas, Europe before 1600, Europe after 1600, and Asia...
