FOLLANSBEE STEEL mill will finally be moved to Gadsden, Ala., after a battle with the townspeople of Follansbee, W. Va. and a last-minute bid by Cleveland Financier Cyrus Eaton (TIME, Sept. 27 et seq.). By a vote of 360,442 to 25,212, Follansbee stockholders have agreed to sell their money-losing company with its $5,000,000 in liabilities for $9.3 million to Manhattan's Frederick Richmond. He, in turn, will sell the mill and inventories to Republic Steel Corp. for the move south, expects to make a fine profit...

While it was abundantly clear that a substitute line does not a stone wall make, its offensive play was good--so good, in fact, that one no longer continues to take the work of Bill Meigs, Orville Tice, John Maher, Tim Anderson, Bob Cochran, Bill Frate, et al, almost for granted. The quality of their work is statistically evident, for they opened holes often enough to allow a predominantly sopho- more backfield to rack up 20 first downs.

There was no mistaking the trend (TIME, Dec. 7 et seq.). Besides the Palace, Sheraton last week picked up Manhattan's 1,500-room McAlpin for $9,000,000, its fifth hotel purchase in two months. Now the No. 2 chain in the country, with 32 hotels with room for 24,000 guests, the Sheraton beat No. 1 Operator Conrad Hilton (with 27 hotels sleeping 30,000) to the Palace by offering Mrs. Johnston about $6,500,000, or some $2,000,000 more than Hilton...
