...Time. It was the Farm Bureau, biggest of the U.S. farm organizations with 1,628,295 families, that was chiefly responsible for defeating the Administration's program of stringent controls last May with the slogan, "Freedom v. Freeman." Buoyed by its victory in the referendum and bulging with 20,790 new member families since then, the bureau still is vigorously pressing its demands for a complete Government retreat from the farm field...
...take the chill off après-swim, there is always the all-encompassing shift. But Catalina has produced a rival that it calls the Sponge-a bright-colored, V-necked sweater of Antron, so stretchy that it slips easily down over the shoulders when the sun comes out -or the move seems desirable...
...from Sawdust. Behind Boise Cascade's swift success is its president, Robert V. Hansberger, 43, a balding, farm-born graduate of the University of Minnesota and Harvard Business School ('47). Hansberger, who looks a little like Yul Brynner, was summoned to rescue struggling Boise Cascade in 1957 on the strength of his success in setting up and profitably running his own small paper mill in Oregon.

Since that time, however, two important decisions have challenged anti-miscegenation laws. In Perez v. Lippold (1948), the California Supreme Court ruled that such laws violated the Fourteenth Amendment. The second, and probably more important case, is that of Brown v. Board of Education, the 1954 Supreme Court school decision. The fall of the "Separate but Equal" principal has struck at the roots of all racist legislation and therefore it is probably...
