...vegetable soup. Hoover, an accomplished fly-fisherman who does not share Ike's love of cooking, spent more time wading in shallow St. Louis Creek. Next day reporters were allowed on the ranch to watch the President sign the social security bill and invited to stick around and watch him broil a dozen thick steaks on an outdoor grill. Hoover ambled up to the grill. As usual, he was grimly hanging onto his snap-brim hat. Ike invited Hoover to help with the steaks.

Within a few days, Indian nationalists gained control of six more villages in the Portuguese district of Damão, 100 miles north of Bombay...
...next picture, plays the career girl with a subtle junior-executive swagger, a good deal of wit, and a sort of U.H.F. sex that not everybody will be able to hear. As for Thelma Ritter, who plays a visiting nurse, she is probably the only actress alive who can stick a thermometer in a man's mouth and say, without a hint of affectation: "See if you can break a hundred...
