...cast is deservedly well known, mostly playing roles that have since become types for them. Barry Fitzgerald signed on board as a comic Irish cook, and Thomas Mitchell as a gruff Irish bully-with-golden-heart. In the company of such genuine specimens Ward Bond changes nationality, if not character, and is a tough, simple-hearted swabbie named yank. The only real surprise is John Wayne who plays Ole. Replete with standard grin and a Swedish accent, Wayne is amazingly good, doing his part with a skill and delicacy that somehow rubbed off by the time he got around...
...Brownell of Williams put out Larry Brownell of the Crimson in the quarter-finals, 3 to 1. Roger Campbell of Princeton topped Hadden Tomes, varsity second man, also in the quarter-finals, 3 to 0.

United Mail Order, Warehouse & Retail Employees, plus $77,000 in lawyers' fees. It was the largest such award ever made...
...judgment stemmed from an injunction that the company sought in 1943 against the union's weekly paper, which was attacking Ward's labor policies. To get the injunction, the company had to post bond and promise to pay any damages to the union if the injunction was later thrown out of court.

In ruling for the union, Judge Hermes held that the union had been seriously hurt as a result of the company's legal maneuvers. The union...
