What Vincent Astor does not know about publishing magazines would doubtless fill the logbook of his yacht Nourmahal. What William Averell Harriman does not know about it would fill the minute-book of his Union Pacific board of directors. Mr. Harriman's sister, Mrs. Mary Harriman Rumsey, chairlady of the NRA Consumers Advisory Board, once backed a friend, William Johnson, in an ambitious but unsuccessful Editors' Feature Service (newspaper syndicate), but she is no editorial genius. Neither, for popular purposes, is Raymond Moley, criminologist, economist and erstwhile chief of President Roosevelt's Brain Trust, whose resignation therefrom...

If he gets what he calls a "good win:" over Crawford, whom he has not played this year, it will be in the final at Forest Hills, because they will doubtless be in opposite halves of the draw. For the last five years, the winner of the Pacific South West tournament has won the U. S. title the next year. Perry won the first last year...

Dr. Stevens' assistant Glenda (Glenda Farrell), an energetic girl with a warm heart and a sharp tongue, is an expertly invented character. So is the most consistent visitor at Dr. Stevens' clinic for children, a proudly despondent young Hebrew named Sanford (Sidney...
...hurriedly at the same time as another broker, had to flip a coin, according to custom, to see who got the purchase. By a sleight-of-hand he lost the toss, bid up & up. finally got the stock at 38, trembling to think what Marshall, Campbell's customer -doubtless watching the tape, seeing OWS sold again and again at higher prices -would say at such bad execution of his order. As Broker Ross backed away, in rushed New Broker Anthony McKin of G. H. Walker & Co. with an order to sell 1,000 shares of OWS. Last sale stood...
