News in Brief: Truman Breaks Ground. The president flies to Wake Forest to take the key spot in groundbreaking ceremonies for new building at the North Carolina college. Mr. Truman appears in good spirits as he turns first shovelful of earth (it takes him a little while - the ground doesn't give up without a fight). Sign and flags flying, Wake Forest campus. VS ceremonies, groundbreaking.
