...Washington one night last week, Republican National Chairman Leonard Hall summoned a cluster of advisers to an urgent conference. Chairman Hall was going to see the President of the U.S. the next day, and he knew that what he said after their meeting would be subjected to microscopic analysis around the world. Hall did not expect to get a commitment about Dwight Eisenhower's political intentions, but he wanted to come out of the President's office with word that would help to maintain the suspense until the time comes for "Yes" or "No." After long and careful...

Terres thinks that the cluster of television antennae on the building may have something to do with it. The power of the antennae has increased recently and broadcasting has continued late into the night. This may be the time when the bats fly past, and in some way the surge of electric energy flooding...
