A Federal District judge has dismissed action against all but one of the defendants in a $4 million libel suit brought by Samuel Insull Jr., son of the late utilities magnate.
Among the suits dismissed was that of Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. '38, professor of History, who referred to Insull in Crisis of the Old Order, published last year as the first volume in his projected study, "The Age of Roosevelt."
The dismissals also applied to nine Scripps-Howard newspapers and their editors and to historian Kenneth E. Trombley and his publisher, Harper & Bros., New York.
