Last week Grove Laboratories, Inc., manufacturers of Bromo Quinine, presented Hugh Samuel Johnson in the first of a series of newscasts which will be heard four nights a week over NBC's Blue network. Bromo Quinine is recommended "For colds and simple headaches," and to most observers of the U. S. scene, Grove's choice of General Johnson seemed singularly appropriate. On a vast scale the General has been causing headaches in one quarter or another for the past four years-first to businessmen when he was the Blue Eagle's boss, then to anti-New Dealers...

This week the 68th annual Camp meeting is to open in the auditorium. Last year its series of daily meetings attracted 62,430 people, and Ocean Grove expects attendance to be even better this year. So far, morning and evening crowds at Sunday auditorium services have averaged 4,000. According to Joseph A. Thoma, 39-Year-old city manager...
