...party leader. But when the Russian tank columns moved to crush the revolution of October 1956, Pal Kosa opposed them.

On Nov. 12, Pal Kosa was captured by the vengeful puppet government of Janos Kadar...
...leader of the heavily favored Alliance Party, Tengku (Prince) Abdul Rahman, 56, quit his job as Prime Minister four months ago to barnstorm throughout all eleven states of the federation by motorboat and car.

Frans Hals has been called a wife-beater, a tosspot, a congenital bankrupt and an angel with a brush. The first three charges rest on the petty court records of Haarlem, Holland, the last on about 300 paintings scattered throughout the world. The court records show a sorry existence, the paintings a radiant one. Hals's life was both. He fathered 14 children, often went cold and hungry with his brood, died penniless (in 1666) at the age of 86. In good times he would march off to the club, being fond of music, beer and jolly company...
