...three years ago, swart young Gaspare Pisciotta was the close friend and trusted lieutenant of Sicily's most notorious bandit chieftain, Salvatore Giuliano (TIME, July 17, 1950 et seq.). Thanks to the unremitting efforts of Mario Scelba, who was then Italy's Interior Minister, Giuliano was killed and Pisciotta captured. At his trial, the boastful bandit lieutenant proudly admitted that it was he who had told the police where to find Giuliano, that it was he and not the police who fired the fatal bullet into the bandit's body. The confession earned him no forgiveness...
...this show of crashing unanimity, one M.P. was conspicuously absent: Milovan Djilas, the purged and disgraced Vice President who had gabbled too much about the rigid Marxism and flexible love lives of his fellow top Communists (TIME, Jan. 18 et seq.). "Political pornography," one of his critics called it. Djilas sent word that he had resigned his seat. To succeed him as Assembly President, the members last week unanimously elected Mosa Pijade, 64, a gnomelike little man whose friendly, avuncular air (covering the steely core of a seasoned revolutionist) has earned him the nickname Cica (uncle).

RUSSIA, which recently puzzled financial experts by selling gold (TIME, Nov. 15 et seq.), has now added a mystery for commodity men.

Furry said No. 1 was now teaching in a U.S. university, No. 2 was in private industry, No. 3 was at a British university. The U.S. Senator and the Har vard professor finally tired of what Furry called "a game of 20 questions." Black v. Grey. Another Harvard- employee. Leon J. Kamin. research assistant in the department of social relations, had gone around with Communism like a man in a revolving door. He was a party...
...Sizzling & Sensational." One of the Mirror's fiercest battles was against its two afternoon competitors, Hearst's Herald & Express and the ailing Daily News. In editorials and news stories, all three papers constantly fire away (TIME, Nov. 24, 1952 et seq.) at one another. For example, in the middle of the Mirror's liquor-license series, Newsmen discovered that Mirror Movie Columnist Florabel Muir had herself sold a license in just the way Mirror had said was "sizzling and sensational." Columnist Muir promptly resigned (TIME...
