The Book = of the Month Club,
Random House, and Harper and
Brothers, whose purchase of the re-
print publishing house of GroSset
and Dunlap was made public last
week, announced yesterday that Lit
tie, Brown and Company of Boston,
and Charles Scribners' Sons of New
York have become active partici-
pants in the venture. The organi-
cation of the new corporation has
onW been rounded into its final
form. The four publishing houses
of Scribner's, Little Brown, Harper S
and Random House will hold equal
numbers of shares of the GroSSet
and Dunlap stock. The Book-of-
the : Month Club holdings will be
somewhat larger than those of any
of the individual members partici-
pating, but no one participant will
hold a controlling interest.
MIR. Donald GrosSet and several
other members of the old firm OF
GrosSet and, Dunlap will retain
holdings in the new corporation,
and Mr.. Grosset will remain as an
officer and director. The complete
transaction will be contaminated on
November 28th of this year.
AS has been previously announced,
active management of GroSset and
Dunlap will be directed by Random
House, experienced in the reprint
business through its publication of
Modern Library series for the past
10 years, while the general policies
will be decided by the Board of
Directors on which all owners will
be represented.

The Wyandotte news-herald. (Wyandotte, Mich.) 1943-1963, 1944-10-19

The new owners state specifically
that the GroSset and Dunlap bust
ness will be continued as a COM
pletely independent enterprise, in
terested in acquiring reprint rights
from all publishers, maintaining its
present policies and outlets, and
making such moves as will enable
it ii keep step with the rapidly ex-
banding mass market for books.
The participating publishers own
firms, staffs and programs will not
be affected in any way by the de-
velopment, nor will their present
policies of selling reprint rights to
certain of their publications to the
various houses in the field, other
than GroSset and Dunlap, be
changed.
Mr.. Harry Scherman, President of
the Book -of- the Month Club, added
this to the announcement:
considerable curiosity has been
expressed as to why the Book-of-
the-Month Club has acquired an in
terest in this business in conjunction
with the four publishing houses in
volved.
"The reason is that it puts us in a
more favorable position, should We
at some time in the future decide
to enter the low-priced book club
field with a subsidiary.
eve have no present intention OF
doing this, but a direct connection
with the oldest reprint house would
obviously be advantageous, if ex-
pansion in that direction ever seems
desirable"

Rutherford College
Hit By Wind Storm

MORGANTON - July 18 -
Historic Rutherford college bore
the brunt of storm of tornado
proportions that ripped through
that section of Burke county early
today, uprooting trees, leveling
corn crops, tearing limbs from
sturdy oaks, and twisting chin
reys off level with housetops.
Hail also fell on THE Ridge, -
the site of the building of old
Rutherford college, shredding
corn blades and Kidding gardens.
Watermelons looked as if they had
been hit by B. B. shot. At least
dozen oaks were blown DOWN at
Camp Free, Connolly Springs re-
ligious camp ground. The storm
tore a gable off the old frame hotel
at Connolly Springs which is being
RACED by workmen so that the
lumber of the 59-year-old building
may be used in thu construction OF
school building near Winston
Salem.
No reports of injury were re-
ceived here.

Hemlock trees over 800 years

With The AEF
By KENNETH L. DIXON

WITH THE AEF IN ITALY,
July 7-Delayed by Censor
ship)-lRAWith bayonets fixed,
eyes right and two flags fly
ing, the tired soldiers of this
veteran outfit said farewell to
their general todSy-passing
before him in voluntary re-
view.
They are the men of the 36th
division. He is Maj, Fred L.
Walker. And their tribute was
the kind of a scene which no
man who was there ever will
forget.
The 57-year-old general was
being called home after three
years to command Fort Ben
ming, Ga.
He didn't want to go and his
men didn't want to lose him.
A review is strictly deal
for a garrisoned soldier back
home. This division hadn't
staged one in more than two
years. Besides the men are
worn, thin and haggard from
more than a month S constant
fighting and a 150-mile chase
of Field Marshal Albert Kes-
selring's troops. Their eyes
were tired and their clothes
and equipment in bad shape.
But they wanted to do some
thing. So they cropped up the
grass and each battalion I'M
fur'ed the Stars and Stripes
and the red flag of Texas, with
its one white star, and they
stood in rigid lines before him
stretching thousands strong
in the sunlight across the dusty
fields.
The generals voice was hus-
ky when he stepped up to the
field public address system and
thanked them. He told them
