Cavileer and Wood had to go down to the A.B. Dick Company headquarters to consult on a way of producing two colors on one carbon.

The director of the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, Melvin Gottlieb, is now convinced that the break-even point can be reached with Princeton's new and bigger torus, slated to begin operation...
