...idea of a great, multiracial university with roots around the world is an exciting one for both Howard and the U.S. Like Nabrit himself, who returned last week as a delegate to the International Labor Conference in Geneva for the second year in a row. Howard faculty members frequently carry out foreign technical missions, particularly in Asia and Africa. Wherever they go, from starting a new medical school in Saigon to establishing a home economics department at the University of Baroda. India, they meet Howard alumni, who know the U.S. and understand what it is trying to accomplish. The horizons...
Dalkowski seems pure fiction. In four years with six clubs in six minor leagues, he has struck out 665 batters, walked 726, thrown as many as six wild pitches in a row, broken one hitter's arm, torn the lobe off another's ear, and sent an unsuspecting umpire to the hospital with a stray fastball that popped him flush on the mask, knocked him 18 ft., chest pad over whisk broom. At Aberdeen, S. Dak., in 1958, Dalkowski pitched a one-hitter and lost, 9 to 8. Against Reno's Silver Sox this summer, he whiffed...
...there is nothing fatal or final to point to. In Britain, the Tories still hold the husk of the Establishment and hope in the upcoming elections to make it "Four in a Row."

Last week the dispute was officially closed when the two governments and ten other Communist states signed an agreement in Bucharest upholding Nikita Khrushchev's doctrine of peaceful coexistence. Proclaimed Peking's Madame Sun Yatsen: "It is simply a lie" that Red China-as so many Chinese orators and editors had been saying at the top of their voices-opposed coexistence with ''the imperialists...
...years, Newberg and Colbert both started to work for Chrysler in 1933. As Colbert advanced, Newberg was usually only a step behind. When President Colbert became Chrysler's board chairman, it was no surprise to anyone that Newberg was named president, bypassing able First Vice President Edgar C. Row, 64, who, Colbert said, was ailing and anxious to retire. When Newberg left last week the ailing Row was pronounced "recovered" of his ailment (deafness) by Colbert and given his job back, despite the fact that Row had already released his secretary and cleaned out his desk to retire. When...
