...only man I'll ever love," she said of Philip. "We are ready to forgive and forget. We still love you dearly," said Eileen Ross in a message to her husband. Thus doubly beloved, the Rev. Mr. Ross-Davies prudently lingered in Europe, while in England a solemn brood of lawyers set about annulling the legal consequences of his untimely death...
Irreverent Newcomer. For Daugherty has neither the portentous air nor commanding presence of the typical big-time football coach. He is cheerfully irreverent in a profession of solemn ulcer cases, a merry man with an Irishman's gregariousness and a leprechaun's smile. He has known the bitterness of defeat, when in 1954 he inherited a team of Big Ten co-champions and lost six out of nine games.

...solemn Australian looked beaten before he started. Even the crowd at Long Island's West Side Tennis Club this week figured that Ken Rosewall was a sure loser.

...solemn, plump, tightfisted and deceptively timorous little fellow, Copley at once set up shop as a portrait painter. At first he borrowed poses and tony backgrounds from his step father's mezzotints, and tricks of color and modeling from his elders in Boston's portrait-painting fraternity. But he soon found he could go farther by paying scant attention to the modes and strict attention to his models. He thought nothing of spending 100 hours on a portrait, advanced as much by elbow grease as by genius. Early in his career he reached a pedestrian conclusion that lent...
