Since Watts cannot go, Barnaby will be able to muster only two of his top three doubles teams for the season. Sophomores Charlie Ufford and Art French make up the first doubles, while Captain Bob Bramhall and Bill Goodman, a junior, will play in the second position. Gerry Murphy, who usually teams with Watts, will be matched with any one of four other members of the team for the third pair...
...these troubles was Chopin's orchestration. Generally uncomfortable in large works, the composer was nearly able to redeem the disjointedness of this concerto by the delicacy of isolated sections.

Happy Chandler just couldn't muster the votes. He needed twelve to re-elect him to his $65,000 job as baseball commissioner; the best he could get from the club owners in Miami Beach this week was nine-the same as last time around (TIME, Dec. 25).

An incinerator would also cut off the $75,000 expense of dragging the refuse out to Spectacle Island. In 1945, $30,000 was appropriated to plan an incinerator, and an engineer engaged to do it. But when the design was submitted, the Public Works Commissioner rejected it on two relatively minor points. Nothing has happened since...
This is a full U.S. infantry division (Pennsylvania's 28th, National Guard). How many such divisions can the Western allies muster against Russia's 175 divisions? Despite Eisenhower's reluctance to give a specific answer, some facts & figures are available. The following is a catalogue of the twelve NATO nations' ground strength, based on the rough & ready available figures-and on estimates, guesses and hopes...
