...only the great writers who trademark their work. Lesser authors, too, car. take the language in their bare hands and mash it into a pulp which is peculiarly their own. Thus, although many of Shakespeare's best lines might have been written by one or another of his contemporaries, no living writer can quite reproduce the "feel" of a characteristic line by Kathleen Winsor: "They stood together, his legs widespread"; "He swept the hair off her neck and put his mouth there"; "He smelt like weeds rotted in water." Even longer stretches of Winsor prose have that touch...

The close-cropped, greying hair, the imperiously immobile face, the thin mustache and the prominent nose that terminates in a kind of bulb are even more of a Romanoff trademark than his coat of arms. His most recent crest (supplanting an elaborate compound that included a sheaf of wheat, a gargoyle and a Martini glass) is a chaste pair of back-to-back R's topped by a regal crown...

Papers in the chain have been changing their makeup, dumping the old circus & gingerbread style that was a Hearst trademark. In its place have come cleaner headline type, fewer screaming bannerlines and a more up-to-date, readable layout. Gigantic cartoons and other boiler plate that once poured out of Hearst headquarters are now passed up by editors whenever they will, and even such well-entrenched Hearst columnists as Westbrook Pegler and George Sokolsky may be dropped or trimmed as editors desire...
