For the recent Viet-Namese resolution which declared that Indo-China wanted complete freedom at the end of the war aroused quick opposition in Paris. The same French government which had just accepted $385,000,000 in U.S. aid to "break up and destroy the regular enemy forces in Indo-China" immediately sought, in indignation, a quick exit from the fight by threatening to withdraw if the Viet-Namese continued to seek independence instead of throwing their entire strength...
...wins. ¶ King of the Khyber Rifles (20th Century-Fox), also in CinemaScope, stars Tyrone Power in India, has been called an "eastern western." ¶ Garden of Evil (20th Century-Fox), with Gary Cooper in CinemaScope, is "a western in Mexico." ¶ Red Garters (Paramount) is a tongue-in-cheek musical western using abstract settings. The villain wears black and rides a black horse; the hero and his horse are both in white. ¶ Johnny Guitar (Republic) stars Joan Crawford as a sort of female Shane who shoots it out with Two-Gun Mercedes McCambridge.

...back through Abilene, in front of St. Andrew's Church, Ike suddenly ordered his chauffeur to stop the car when a woman broke through the crowd and dashed into the street. The President greeted her with a warm kiss on the cheek and announced that she was Mrs. Gladys Brooks, his high-school sweetheart. On the way back to Salina, Ike halted the motorcade once more at a drive-in melon market. He enthusiastically accepted a dripping slice of cantaloupe from the flabbergasted proprietors, bought two watermelons to take along with...
...advertised that he had to sell 131 cars in 48 hours. The inference was that he would make a good deal, and customers nocked to his showrooms.
