...fire them-Currier, now 46, started his theater when he was 17, and built it into one of the country's most durable stock houses by the traditional method-milking Broadway cows turned out to pasture (this season: Under the Yum-Yum Tree, The Pleasure of His Company, etc.). But he has also mixed in Wilde, Williams, Sherwood, and Giraudoux, giving the Kennebunkport Playhouse a high reputation among actors, critics, and the sober side of his audiences. Performers are fond of returning there, including Tallulah Bankhead, Henry Morgan, Russell Nype, and Currier's own sister, Singer Jane Morgan...
Once these major items are secured, the camper must stock up on food (Armour & Co. now markets a variety of lightweight, dehydrated foods that require no refrigeration) and cooking utensils. A nested set of aluminum skillets, bowls, cups, etc., sells for about $8, and a knife-fork-spoon combination that clips together costs 70?. A length of nylon line is handy for lashing bedrolls and tents. Flashlights and spare batteries should be packed, as well as a small kerosene lamp, books, matches in a waterproof case, first-aid kit, candle, knife, hatchet, bucket, small trench shovel, mosquito repellent, aluminum foil...

Plutonium and uranium 235 for fission bombs are expensive and scarce, but fusion ingredients (lithium, deuterium, etc.) are comparatively cheap and plentiful. If they are the only major ingredients needed, the manufacture of N-bombs and big H-bombs to be triggered by them will be an easy matter, once the secret of their construction becomes common knowledge...

What is that impact of the city on its population? what are the specific characteristics--physical, social, cultural, etc.-- that explain this impact? How explain urban growth, and why do some cities stagnate or die? What is the broader significance of suburbanization, and what happens to the central city...
There is at least one thing that U.S. Communists like about the U.S.: they can enjoy the protection of U.S. institutions -free speech, free assembly, etc.-while working to destroy those same institutions. But last week the U.S. Supreme Court set some limits on the extent to which the Communists may go in using the U.S. system to bring down the U.S. In two cases involving the constitutional balance between individual liberty and national security, the court stood for security. But on each case the vote was 5 to 4, and the issue was sharply fought...
