Last week Indiana's soil, as distinct from its station platforms, was dotted with shocks of new-cut wheat. Young green corn was two to three feet high, and high-legged hogs stood up to their chocolate-colored rumps in lush, weedy meadows. Wild hollyhocks and roses splashed the fence lines with color, but nowhere bloomed a fairer flower for Hoosier politicians to gaze upon than their radiantly handsome master, Paul Vories McNutt, returning home to do some hoeing in his own back row. For Paul McNutt's Presidential hopes, carefully nursed through many a long winter, were...

...right uppercut and a left to the jaw, so being stranded in Big Horn, Wyo. with only 15? during rodeo week puts no undue strain on her morale. She takes a stand behind the counter of a shooting gallery, goes gunning for a big, silent ranch hand (Robert Young), misses his heart with her first try. Happily pursuing him out on the range, Maisie is resourcefully wrangling her man with a healthy woman's zest when into the picture pops an incompatible couple from the East, laden with a love triangle and a lot of other well-worn cinema...

From Vienna (produced by the Refugee Artists Group). One by one, after Anschluss, the members of a young Viennese theatre group called the Wiener kleinkunstbühne found their way to the U.

Last week at Ackermann's gallery in London, Peter Markham Scott's seventh exhibition of paintings testified to the industry of one of England's least indolent young men. Broad-shouldered, shock-headed Artist Scott inherited not only his father's features but his liking for open air. At intellectual Trinity College, Cambridge, he lived unsociably with a pet snake and an owl, spent his vacations duck-hunting and sailing. For his painting he chose an open-air subject-wild fowl...

...Government's case many a tree had been shown Judge Caffey in 18,331 pages of evidence taken in court. Out of these many trees, the Government's smart young men tried to make a forest by presenting a 291-page brief, for Judge Caffey to digest while the defense was in process. He needed a good digestion. With 159 court days behind it, the Alcoa case was last week already the longest trust-busting suit in U. S. history. Only comparable suits in duration and importance were the 50-day prosecution of the Sugar Institute...
