Notes made by Berle after the interview, however, somewhat contradicted Berle's memory: Berle's notes, made public at the Hiss trial, indicated that Chambers had charged that at least three former Government attorneys-Lee Pressman, Nathan Witt and John Abt-were members of an "underground group." Among other items in Berle's notes was the line: "Plans for two super-battleships secured in 1937-who gave-." Also from Berle's notes: "Donald Hiss [brother of Alger], member of C.P. with Pressman and Witt . . ." and-"Alger Hiss, Ass't. to Sayre-C.P.-1937. Member...
...came "Hearty birthday greetings to one whom the power of music has given the spirit of eternal youth." Pope Pius XII sent his apostolic benediction. From the speaker's table in a ballroom of Manhattan's Ritz-Carlton Hotel last week, Bruno Walter, Dimitri Mitropoulos, Georges Enesco, Nathan Milstein and Jennie Tourel all rose to add their tributes to the refrain.

Lacking the rustic qualities of a Model T or the urbane class of a Rolls, the car amazed its owner recently by apparently running 10 miles on an empty gas tank and coming to a dead stop before a gas station...
...When Nathan threw a piece of bread And hit Abijah on the head, The wrathful freshman, in a trice, Sent back another bigger slice, Which, being buttered pretty well, Made greasy work wher'er it fell, And thus arose a fearful battle, The coffee-cups and saucers rattle, The bread-bowls fly at woeful rate, And break full many a learned pate...
