Closing the Gap. In the TV show, Jarrin' Jack can never quite reconcile himself to the fact that Junior is not a muscular fresh-air fiend like himself, but a studious type who collects tropical fish. Junior is convincingly played by Gil Stratton Jr., burr head, droop jaw, horn rims and all. What particularly jars Jack is the knowledge that the son of his meek, pint-sized office bookkeeper is a strapping answer to a football coach's prayer. Yet in program four, after Pop has the bookkeeper's boy underfoot for a weekend, he finds that...

...engineer with the Army's flood-control project on Ohio's Muskingum River in 1935. Working with him were two other civilian engineers, Ernest Tippetts and Gerald McCarthy, who later joined his private firm with Robert Abbett. An ex-Army engineer, Brigadier General James H. Stratton, Knappen's West Point classmate, came in two years before Knappen's death in 1951. Their work is scattered so far that they divide up the world among them. Tippetts looks after North Africa, Abbett the Near East and Bolivia; McCarthy watches Haiti, Burma, Puerto Rico, Portugal and Greece; General...

...disappointing starts. But others among the freshmen looked like real comers. In Minnesota, C. Elmer Anderson had turned out to be a competent, careful administrator and a hail-fellow Eisenhower advocate whose performance has confounded the armchair analysts and won wide approval among the voters. In Illinois, Bill Stratton, another dark horse, had accomplished things that Adlai Stevenson had failed to get done (TIME, July 13).
