...Senator James H. Duff, original Ike-man who had been a sulky, do-little Senator, in favor of personable Democrat Joseph Clark. But they gave Ike a smashing 592,000-vote plurality, and the G.O.P. regained full control of the state legislature. Similarly. Washington State re-elected popular Democrat Warren Magnuson to the Senate over Governor Arthur Langlie, on the basis of Maggie's generally hard work in the Senate and his shower of favors to his state from Washington, D.C.-but the state's hard-working Republican incumbents were returned to Congress from at least five...
Clobbered Clowns. As they made their decisions, even voters in the most hidebound areas jumped traditional party lines in pursuit of their local or regional interests. Kansas Republicans, fed up with G.O.P. factionalism, named Democrat George Docking governor over Warren Shaw (who suffered the additional liability of charges that he had taken kickbacks on gasoline sales to the state). In Republican Iowa, voters resented G.O.P. Governor Leo Hoegh's move-fast, high-tax program (TIME, Oct. 22), and elected Democrat Herschel Loveless. In West Virginia, corruption charges against the outgoing Democratic state administration resulted in the election of Republican...
...grand opera, is distinctly dated. Whenever Gilda has a spare moment, the orchestra lapses into a kind of soft-shoe accompaniment, leaving wide-open spaces for her graceful vocal glides and glitters.

Her phrasing was always neat and true; in lyrical passages her voice floated with never an edge. In Verdi's showy old coloratura bits, e.g., Caro Nome, it glittered clear and bright as a glockenspiel in a football band. She was nervous at first-her vibrato was fast...
This week, in honor of the 100th anniversary of Justice Louis Dembitz Brandeis' birth, scores of notables from the academic and legal worlds gathered at the Brandeis campus in Waltham, Mass, to pay him tribute. Chief Justice Warren unveiled a statue of him, and three of his former law clerks were on hand for the ceremony. But the most meaningful tribute to Brandeis was the university itself. In only eight years, it has taken its place as one of the most promising of U.S. liberal-arts campuses...
Above the present library is the Warren Museum which also suffers from the same overcrowding seen in the library. The museum is designed to provide exhibit cases for the display of many of the instruments and techniques discussed in class. As it stands now the cases are heaped to overflowing with a mass of instruments. Lighting facilities are very poor, and the skylights have been blackened so that very little daylight can enter. If this museum were renovated, it could better serve its purpose of giving students an historical and visual perspective of the field which they are studying...
