...growing up in South Bend, Kuharich used to be shepherded into practice by Notre Dame players and get an occasional greeting from Knute Rockne himself. From 1935 to 1937 Kuharich was a sturdy and aggressive guard on some of Notre Dame's solid teams (the three-year record: 19-5). Kuharich left Notre Dame with just one ambition: to return as head football coach. Kuharich got his wish after the 1958 season, when Notre Dame fired Terry Brennan on the charge that he had been a poor coach (his good record: 32-18). To return to Notre Dame, Kuharich...
DONNER'S mind is so neatly compartmented that he can juggle three columns of figures at once, read a report while talking on the telephone, carry on simultaneous conferences in his office with three executives involved in entirely different matters. He keeps his hand in everything. Recently he helped sign up Danny Kaye for a three-year TV contract which, to the discomfort of admen, did not have an option to drop Kaye if the first shows were unsuccessful. (Kaye's first show proved a qualified critical success.) Donner also likes to give G.M. cars a rough spin...
Strong Voice. A French-educated tribal chieftain with a Tammany sachem's flair for politics, Houphouet-Boigny became a member of the French Assembly in 1945, joined forces with the Communists, but broke with them in 1950. He eventually parlayed his role as an African spokesman into a three-year succession of Cabinet posts in Paris, beginning in 1956. For the Ivory Coast, Houphouet-Boigny has wangled from France an ambitious aid program ($16.5 million this year). As a result, Abidjan is completely electrified and may be the only city in Africa where every dwelling has running water...
John Crosby's decision to try on Mencken's mantle is the result of an anguished, three-year tussle with himself and the H. T. syndicate. The syndicate feared a loss of readers. Crosby feared a loss of sanity if he kept on working television. "I can't look at that box any more or I'll go crazy," he confessed. And in his farewell column he wrote: "It gets harder and harder to write a coherent sentence...
With the encouraging three-year pilot project in Cambridge completed and with the basic methods thoroughly tested, Slack believes "Street-corner Research" methods could be set up on a full operating scale. Finding a city willing to implement the project is not an easy task, although supporting the program would put no burden on the taxpayer. Indeed, the taxpayer would save because there would be fewer youths to support in reformatories and later in prison. Streetcorner Research could actually be set up as as a non-profit business and receive payment for each predicted delinquent which the program is able...
