Francis Regis St. John (June 16, 1908 – July 19, 1971) was an American librarian and director of the Brooklyn Public Library from 1949 to 1963. In 1999, American Libraries named him one of the "100 Most Important Leaders We Had in the 20th Century".

St. John was born in Northampton, Massachusetts. He attended Northampton High School and worked in the Forbes Library as a page and desk assistant. He attended Amherst College, studying botany and working as a student assistant in the library. He graduated in 1931 with an AB. The next year, he graduated with a BLS from the Columbia University School of Library Service. That year he also began working for the New York Public Library, holding a number of positions. In 1939, he became assistant director under Joseph L. Wheeler at the Enoch Pratt Free Library in Baltimore, Maryland. Two years later he returned to the NYPL as head of the circulation department.

During World War II, from 1943 to 1945, St. John worked for the Army Medical Library as acting librarian and then assistant to the director. He advanced from lieutenant to captain and was awarded the Legion of Merit for reorganizing the Library. He returned again to the NYPL in 1945, before becoming Director of Library Services for the Veterans Administration in 1947.

In 1949, St. John became director of the Brooklyn Public Library, where he made his national reputation. During his tenure, circulation of materials doubled from 5 million to 10 million, the library added 17 new branches for a total of 55, and expansion of the Central Library was completed. Innovations like assembly-line book processing reduced costs, which funded expanded services like remedial reading programs. He actively recruited African-Americans for professional positions.

He retired from the Brooklyn library in 1963.  From 1964 to 1967, he operated a consulting firm whose clients included numerous state and city library systems in the United States. He then became librarian at Saint Anselm College in Goffstown, New Hampshire until 1970.

Play Street Soccer is a non-profit organization based in Carrboro, North Carolina. The organization began as an on-site program of the Chapel Hill and Carrboro Human Rights Center under the leadership of coach John Mulholland in 2010. Originally, Coach Mulholland taught soccer lessons to children living in the Abbey Court Apartments, historically an apartment complex for low-income families. Since its beginning, Play Street Soccer has now grown to host pick-up soccer games at three low-income neighborhoods in Chapel Hill and Carrboro through the efforts of UNC student, Carey Averbook. Games are held at Abbey Court Apartments, Rogers Road, and Estes Park apartments throughout the week during the fall and spring. Volunteers from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill help facilitate the games as part of various service-learning classes offered at the institution.

Play Street Soccer's mission is to bring soccer to communities where most children can't travel to club teams. In addition, the organization hopes to bring together the children and parents of each community through friendly competition. By having the children self-officiate, Play Street Soccer hopes to instill ideals responsibility, teamwork, and cooperation in its participants in addition to positively affecting the children's physical and mental wellness. By involving college students, the pick-up games can also provide positive role models for the community members.

Plot
In a book store, smooth-talking hard drug dealer/user and local artist Steve (Stephen Lack) meets Allan (Allan Moyle), a young sociology student at McGill. They become fast friends and Allan is invited to Steve's studio apartment on Montreal main to meet his commune/drug network.

Allan decides he wants to do a paper with the controversial position that drug use has positive effects using Steve's 'family' as a case study. Life with Steve and the gang isn't quite as rosy as it might appear to Allan at first but it isn't quite as sleazy as it might appear to others either.

Pierre (Pierre Robert), a bisexual, heroin addict/male prostitute with a wife and small daughter looks to displace Steve as the leader of the group when, compelled by his addiction he concocts a plan to steal drugs from a storage locker at the train station. Steve, having nearly followed through on the same plan, is certain it is a trap. Being indiscreetly watched and recorded by corrupt narcotics cops the tension rises.

The Sumner Tunnel is a road tunnel in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. It carries traffic under Boston Harbor in one direction, from Logan International Airport and Route 1A in East Boston. The tunnel originally deposited traffic at the west side of the North End, but with the completion of the Big Dig, it was modified to have two exits. One exit connects to I-93 northbound and downtown Boston (Government Center) near Haymarket Station. The other exit connects to Storrow Drive and Nashua St., connecting Cambridge via Route 28. Traffic headed for I-93 southbound and the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90) westbound is normally routed to the Ted Williams Tunnel.

History
The Sumner Tunnel was opened on June 30, 1934. It carried traffic in both directions until the opening of the parallel Callahan Tunnel in 1961. The Sumner Tunnel is named for William H. Sumner, the son of Governor Increase Sumner.

, a toll of $1.50 is charged for non-commercial two-axle vehicles with a Massachusetts E-ZPass, while non-Massachusetts E-ZPass holders are charged $1.75. Vehicles without E-ZPass are charged $2.05 through MassDOT's Pay by Plate MA program. For residents of certain Boston ZIP Codes, a discount is in effect using an E-ZPass transponder, costing $0.20. On November 14, 2008, the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority voted in favor of a proposed toll hike which would double the toll to $7.00 for non-commercial vehicles (at the time, the toll was $3.50 in the southbound direction only). E-ZPass users would receive a $1.00 discount and commercial vehicles would end up having to pay $9.00. This vote was later rescinded following a vote approving a 1.25% sales tax increase.

In 2016, cashless tolling systems were installed in both directions, entering the Sumner Tunnel and exiting the Callahan Tunnel as part of a plan to modernize toll collection in the Boston area.

Shutdowns are planned for weekends starting June 2022, with a full shutdown for the summer of 2023 and intermittent closures into 2024, to allow a complete rehabilitation of the tunnel.

Hopkinstown () is a small village to the west of Pontypridd in the county borough of Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales, alongside the River Rhondda. Hopkinstown is a former coalmining and industrial community, now a district in the town of Pontypridd within the Rhondda electoral ward. Neighbouring settlements are Pwllgwaun, Trehafod and Pantygraigwen, and the sub-districts of Troed-Rhiw-Trwyn and Gyfeillion.

Early and industrial history
The area where Hopkinstown is located was, as late as 1842, an undeveloped woodland known as the Ty Mawr Estate. Owned by Evan Hopkin, the area developed quickly, until around 1850 it was beginning to urbanise after the sinking of two collieries: Ty Mawr and Gyfeillion. Along with buildings to house the miners, Hopkinstown quickly acquired a chemical works, an iron foundry and coke ovens.

The original village was a single row of houses along the Rhondda Road that followed the river. Not until the 1871 census was the name Hopkin's Town used to describe it. By 1891 the village had a population of over 1,500 and several streets of terraced houses had been built.

Hopkinstown saw eight shafts sunk in the industrial period. John Calvert, an engineer from Yorkshire, had already sunk the Newbridge Colliery (later part of the Maritime Collieries, near Graig, Pontypridd), and in 1848 he funded the construction of the Gyfeillon Colliery. It passed to the Great Western Railway company, then reverted to Calvert before he sold it to the Great Western Colliery Company, which sank a total of six shafts known collectively as the Great Western Collieries.

Two other mines in the area, not owned by the Great Western, were the Typica Pit at Troed-rhiw-trwyn, which was only open for five years between 1875 and 1879, and the Lan Colliery, the only pit in Hopkinstown south of the River Rhondda. In 1889 it was owned by William Davies of Pontypridd, employing only seven miners, and was closed in September 1907.

On Tuesday 11 April 1893, fire broke out in the Great Western Mine colliery, trapping some 200 miners underground. Although the majority were rescued, the death-toll was 63 men and boys.

On 23 January 1911 eleven people died in the Hopkinstown rail disaster, when a carriage carrying passengers collided with a stationary coal train on the Taff Vale Railway line.

Notable residents
Elaine Morgan (1920–2013), script-writer, populariser of science and feminist writer, was born in the village.

The John C. Brown House, in Shelby County, Kentucky near Mulberry, Kentucky, was built around 1837, and it has additions done in approximately the 1960s.  It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. The property was deemed significant under the National Registers' criterion for design and construction, "as a well-preserved example of the early 19th century (1810-1840) 1-story, frame, center-passage, single-pile plan in Shelby County," balancing out the several different-but-from-the-same-period frame I-houses which had been identified in the study. It features "antebellum vernacular" style and was built . It was listed as a result of a large 1986-1987 study of the historic resources of Shelby County.

The house appeared "to have been built by John Cameron Brown shortly after his marriage to Sarah Ann Waters on September 12, 1837, on land he inherited from his uncle and guardian, the Rev. Archibald Cameron (first pastor of the Mulberry Presbyterian Church.  John C. and his brother Archibald Cameron were reared by their uncle following the death of their mother. Both inherited land from the uncle whose will was probated in 1836."

A cellar is a second contributing building in the listing. The listings' boundaries were defined to include the house plus "domestic-related space which includes the remains of an orchard, a vegetable garden, and a cellar as well as three non-contributing sheds. Although these sheds are of more recent construction than the house, they could not be eliminated from the nominated area without disrupting the relationship of the house and its setting."

Past the mailbox on the east side of Cropper Rd. (Kentucky Route 43), it is way back up a longish driveway, which in the summer is surrounded by very tall corn.  The house faces east, away from the lane.

It is located within a multi-county study area for routing of a new highway connecting Interstate 65 and Interstate 71 avoiding Louisville.

“Personal Notes of an Infantryman” is an uncollected work of short fiction by J. D. Salinger which appeared in the 12 September, 1942 issue of  Collier's.

Plot

The story concerns an older man trying to get in the military, and then overseas to combat, despite the obstacles in his way. Collier's published it in December 1942.

Critical Assessment

An example of Salinger’s early single-page “patriotic bromides” published by Collier’s during WWII, the story includes “a cute-to-sickening” surprise ending. A “glib comedy,” the story contrasts with Salinger’s more serious-minded tales dealing with men and boys at war, such as “Soft-Boiled Sergeant” (1944).

Written as an expedient to sustain his early success as a published writer, Salinger, aware of “which magazines like what kind of writing,” formulated “Personal Notes of an Infantryman” to make it particularly appealing to Collier’s editors: “A neatly predictable O. Henry ending…imbued with patriotism and a warmth toward the military.”
Biographer Kenneth Slawenski reports on Salinger’s own appraisal of the story:
