...final vote was tense. Before it began. Attorney General William Rogers, Deputy Attorney General Lawrence Walsh and Solicitor General J. Lee Rankin-who are automatically members of the A.B.A. House of Delegates but rarely vote -slipped into their seats to underscore the Eisenhower Administration's concern over the outcome. By a slender 114 to 107, the A.B.A. stuck by its condemnation of the Connally Reservation...

But millions of men, far less favored than Powers, have died when they had to die to maintain their duty. An intelligence officer has no more immunity from death, when death is required of him, than any exhausted infantryman...
...compact Valiant on a dealer's roof, stopped long enough to photograph them. Last month a Lansing, Mich, photographer made the biggest score of the season when he was tipped that the new Oldsmobile compact, the F-85, would appear on the street briefly for final inspection and testing. He laid in wait, got the shots and sold them to U.P.I...
