Last week Tshombe sat in a shuttered police cell in Algiers, having been kidnaped on a private airplane over the Mediterranean and flown into Algeria. The Congolese government immediately asked Algeria to extradite him so that the sentence of execution could be carried out. Even in jail, however, Tshombe haunted Mobutu. Outraged by his abduction, Tshombe's followers in the eastern part of the Congo rose in revolt, seized two important towns and raised fears that the country might be plunged into another bloody civil...
Towards the end of the play, when Antigone is in a prison cell and attempts to dictate a letter for Haemon, we are deeply moved by her momentary human lapse, "I don't even know what I'm dying for." Here Miss Tucci loses her poise and runs about the enclosure like a caged bird in panic. But when she finally exits to her death, she knows...yes, she knows...
...symbolic setting. Thebes has just been torn by civil war, and the stage is punctuated by four enormous red columns, all but one of which are badly cracked and chipped. Surrounding them, therefore, is a network of metal scaffolding, parts of which later fold in to Antigone's prison cell. This and Tharon Musser's fluid lighting allow the show to proceed for two hours straight through, as Anouilh intended, without intermission...

But only a few weeks after Wadley's jubilant announcement of a cure and the Hayes boy's release from the hospital by Dr. Joseph M. Hill, leukemia cells reappeared.

After 32 days the boy developed an allergic reaction to the enzyme, but Dr. Hill reports that he was successfully desensitized, and that the treatment reduced his white-cell count from...
...Geneticist Hannes Laven of the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz discovered that common mosquitoes from Paris that were mated with members of the same species from Hamburg would not produce offspring. The reason for this sterility, he determined, was a difference in the cytoplasm (the protoplasm surrounding the cell nucleus) between the Paris and Hamburg strains of mosquitoes. Because of this difference, the egg cells of the females of one strain could not accept the sperm cells from males of the other strain, causing the female to lay infertile eggs. This Franco-German incompatibility was not unique. In succeeding years...
