Discharging all the sub-standard teachers, however, would not solve the problem. A teacher shortage already exists in this country: experts estimate the nation must find 16 new teachers between now and 1965 for every ten teachers presently on the job, and on the college level it must find between 16 and 25 new ones by 1970 for every ten presently employed. Finding any teachers--qualified or not--has become a difficult enough task these days. It would hardly seen sensible to start a recruitment campaign for more by discharging a large number of Negro teachers. But it would seem...
Scheduled for 1960 completion, the $75 million Astor Plaza will have a rooftop helicopter landing field, a sub-basement garage, a sunken garden, subterranean passages to funnel its 10,000 workers to nearby subways. Architects Robert Carson and Earl Lundin plan to set the metal and glass-faced tower back from the thoroughfare, flank it with one- and two-storied shops and restaurants to give emphasis to the slab construction...
Last week that putter cooled off a little early in the final round. Then, as Kocsis faded, Harvie's game got better and better. Coming home on the back nine, he fired sub-par golf, overpowered the weary challenger to win 5 and 4.

Even then, Hibbler used to panic the teen-agers by his sudden, disconcerting swoops from a high note to a sub-basement tone. His second big break came a year and a half ago, when Decca signed him up and he recorded a song called Unchained Melody. It became a No. 1 hit. Now he asks $3,000 and up a week for appearances, plays the gaudiest spots in the biggest towns. Between dates he stays at home in Teaneck, N.J. with his wife, listening to the radio. "They tell good stories, those soap operas," he says. "Songs have good...
...Taradash and Elick Moll have run out of plot. But no! Ten-year-old Kevin Coughlin, who has been reading like crazy up to this point, now abhors books and concludes that Bette is a mean old witch. He has nightmares. He listens for the first time to his sub-moronic father. He cuts Bette dead on the street. He even sneaks into the library in the dead of night and sets it on fire...
