...depressing thing about Dean Elder's disapproval of Earl McGrath's proposal to shorten the Ph.D. is that both Elder and McGrath are right. The growing shortage of college and high school teachers is neither imagined nor the result of foolish rules, but the inevitable result of an apparently irresolvable confusion of roles between College and University...
...always reliable: the "flooding" technique often fails to fill the arteries with enough dye, and still pictures do not clearly separate small vessels that are superimposed on each other. One of the major breakthroughs at last week's AHA meeting came when the Cleveland Clinic's Drs. Earl Shirey and F.

Richard George ran away from it all at an advanced age, spent a decade in the U.S. as "a good workman doing, I hope, a number of different jobs well." He went home to England in 1958. In London's sporty Sunday The People, Dick George (as he was known to his U.S. acquaintances) began telling about father last week...
