...these principles or issues is the extent to which the University should become an active, formal partner in group research efforts. It has already done so in a number of cases: the Cambridge Electron Accelerator, the many Centers and Institutes, the Materials Project, and even the several research funds such as the Milton Fund. A number of other proposals have been denied. Clearly such decisions involve several factors such as the wisdom and relevance of the venture and its ultimate cost to Harvard's limited resources as well as the felt need of faculty groups for special research facilities. Since...

...quark hunt. If one of these high-speed bits of matter struck an atomic particle, they calculated, its tremendous energy would accomplish what no man-made atom smasher can do: split that particle into its constituent quarks. A particle with an energy of 200 billion electron volts, for example, might be enough to pry apart the three tightly bound quarks that theoretically constitute a proton. But a machine that can supply such energy will not be available until the AEC completes its giant accelerator at Weston...

Within two weeks after set sail the London Sunday Times's round-the-world yacht race last October, Donald Crowhurst's 41 -foot trimaran, the Teign-mouth Electron, had started falling apart. The lacing on the boom snapped, the port forward hatch sprang a leak, and then his generator went out, leaving him without electricity for three days. While his boat disintegrated with the pounding of heavy seas, the sailor's sanity, strained as it was by the loneliness of the solo odyssey and haunted by the specter of fail ure, also began to fall apart...
