Just what was done for "every man, every section, every project" in the interim, no one would say definitely when the bill was taken up again one day last week. But that something had been done was immediately evident. Alabama's Joe Starnes, flood control bloc leader, let it be known that he had "positive assurance" that there would be flood control pork, earmarking or no earmarking. New York's Alfred Beiter declared the Public Works bloc had done "better than we bargained for." Texas' Marvin Jones did not conceal his opinion that he would get much...
...upon making much of trifles, Call It a Day is about the last possible refinement. Not only does nothing actually happen in the story but the fact that at its end the Hiltons are exactly where they were at its beginning constitutes its denouement. This is because, in the interim, each has been touched, lightly as by the warm March wind, by currents in life that invite or threaten change. Seventeen-year-old Catherine (Olivia de Havilland) has fallen in first love with the artist who is painting her portrait. Her brother Martin (Peter Willes) is interrupted in planning...
Without Warning (by Ralph Spencer Zink; A. L. Jones, producer) is a mystery melodrama which takes place in an experimental hangar of a U. S. arsenal on an unnamed island off the Atlantic coast.

In the highly exciting interim a tough colonel from the Judge Advocate General's Department (Jack Roseleigh), who arrives by Coast Guard plane in dress blues fresh from a Washington dinner party to solve the first killing, beats the daylights out of the wrong man just because he has it coming to him and, before...

In this descent toward mediocrity, the oratory prizes have stood out against the current like rocks in a stream, steadily maintaining their solid basis. They were washed over the blasts of rhetoric, by stultified, memorized arguments, but they remained fixed. Now, nurtured by Professor Packard's courses, and with the tremendous flowering of radio, which is based entirely on ear-appeal rather than the flourishing of arms, the true clocution which the prizes were founded...
...this second class only interim instruction will be given,--just enough, ideally, to bridge the gaps between courses,--and sixteen full courses will be required, instead of the present dose of fifteen. That the Dean is alive to the danger that men in this second class may not cover their fields as "comprehensively" as before is shown by the provision that the general examinations may have to be revised to fit the schedules of "Class B" concentrators...
