...practiced before him as one of the fairest judges, one of the ablest authorities on law in the South. Judge Grubb propounded a series of decisions to the grave disadvantage of NRA and TVA. Last week his successor was appointed: David J. Davis, great & good friend and onetime law partner of Alabama's Senator Hugo La Fayette Black. Said the Birmingham bar when he was proposed for the job: "Courteous . . . considerate . . . efficient." As a faithful follower of New Dealer Black, Judge Davis was counted on to propound few decisions embarrassing to the New Deal...
...sooner had Cinemactor Pat O'Brien cracked a pistol to send off 15 teams of riders than these hopes were granted. Partners Gustav Kilian & Heinz Vopel, over whose bunk flew the old German flag lest "non-Aryans" be annoyed, made their Garden debut by bumping soundly, crashing heavily. Undiscouraged, they duplicated their stunt a few minutes later (see cut), this time bringing down Cecil Yates with them. Helped to their cots, where they were thoroughly lubricated and bandaged, they soon joined the chase again. Vopel, still reckless, next collided with Torchy Peden. Over them tumbled Testa, Grimm, Wissel...
...which he calms by striding about his office and inhaling great whiffs from a small green crystal bottle of smelling salts. From TIME the Daily Express had picked up and reprinted the fact that Putzy in one of these nervous moments exclaimed to Manhattan Lawyer William Ormonde Thompson, onetime partner of Clarence Darrow: "Damn those Oxford professors!

...fledging architectural firms which were building not by the house but by the mile, after the Chicago fire. At 18 he had passed, after six weeks' cramming, the rigorous entrance examinations of L'Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. At 24 he was back in Chicago, a partner with Dankmar Adler in one of the rising firms of the West. Adler, the businessman, and Sullivan, the delicate-fingered designer, took as one of their first jobs what is still an extraordinary architectural achievement: Chicago's Auditorium, comprising a theatre, a recital hall, a hotel and offices...
...stumbled on the work of one of the bitterest and most effective enemies of war in France. Jean Galtier-Boissière founded Crapouillot (name of a small trench cannon) in 1915, at first distributed it only to his fellow soldiers. After the War he branched out, took a partner, began to make journalistic history with a brand of fearless muckraking which caused French citizens' eyes to pop, French officials' hair to rise. With stark facts and photographs Crapouillot took out such disagreeable subjects as the origins and secret causes of the War; French mutinies of 1917; Wartime...
