...this at the factory, and all that happened was the collapse of one of the 600 or so tubes with a big leak, but no disaster. This is of more than historic interest since a surprising number of old Stanleys have been lovingly restored, and are in use at antique car rallies and the like. It would be a pity if the admiring public should flee away thinking one of them might go boom! It won't. I have owned and driven ten different Stanleys since 1930. I survive, unscorched and unblown...

...hard news" concept, the show's basic theme, includes all the important events that have happened since the 11 p.m. newscasts of the previous night. "We won't use hashed-over news," Benti insists. "It is either new, or our way of approaching it is new." One of the new approaches is a continuing series on life in the ghetto, interpreted by Correspondent John Hart. By zeroing in on a two-block area along Washington's Columbia Road, the Bend team hopes to involve its audience in the problems and progress-or retrogression-of a small group...
