Among the runners-up, Dean of U.S. Architecture Frank Lloyd Wright picked up enough votes to place a fourth building, Manhattan's still unfinished Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, in 18th place. Adler & Sullivan added St. Louis' 1890 Wainwright Building (eighth) and Chicago's 1889 Auditorium (13th). Ludwig Mies van der Rohe won tenth place with Manhattan's House of Seagram (TIME, March 3) and 24th with his Lake Shore Drive apartments in Chicago. Famed 19th century Architect Henry Hobson Richardson also rated two buildings: Boston's 1877 Trinity Church (14th) and Chicago's since...

"They're gonna learn democracy if I've gotta shoot every one of them," the colonel roars at Captain Fisby (Glenn Ford) as he bids the captain Godspeed to the village of Tobiki...
...trip to Tokyo next day. In the dream a high official, a civil servant and a young woman were also killed in the crash; in the actual flight the local governor calls to ask if there is room on the air marshal's plane for Lord Wainwright (Ralph Truman), a colonial officer (Alexander Knox) and his secretary (Sheila Sim). The fatal conditions are completed when "a coarse, flashy man" (George Rose) wangles passage, the radio conks out, the pilot (Nigel Stock) gets lost in a snowstorm over Japan...
