Wolfe said that Hawes had offered to collect material for the Countway Library in 1963, when the library was under construction. He said that Hawes had compiled a list of 10,000 historical radiological documents to collect, and that he had "been filling in the gaps" in the library's collection since...
...Mayor Unmoved. While the mayor and police chief championed the status quo, Vigo County Sheriff Clyde Lovellette acted like an old-fashioned lawman. Sending ahead deputies to "collect evidence," the new seven-foot sheriff raided three Tenderloin houses and arrested nine women. All pleaded guilty and were each sentenced to 15 days in jail.

Another $20 million would go to competing antibiotic makers, private hospitals and other claimants. For the first time in an antitrust settlement, individual customers could also collect-if they can prove their purchases between 1953 and 1966 by presenting prescriptions and sales slips to state agencies. Most likely, few would be able to do so, and the agencies would thus keep most of the funds. Drug executives warned, however, that unless practically all of the 81 claimants accept their share...
