...moves well above the speed of sound, it passes through the experimental chamber in a smooth, even stream. "Transonic" tunnels (close to the speed of sound) are much more difficult. At this critical speed, very important in the study of aerodynamics, the tunnel tends to "choke." Shock waves form inside it, making accurate experiments difficult...

Last week, AEC Engineers John F. Newell and C. W. Christenson told about a promising solution of the waste plutonium problem. They found that certain "zoogleal" bacteria (which form gelatinous masses in sewage-disposal systems) have a hearty appetite for plutonium. So they filled a tank-with stones inoculated with bacteria, and trickled through it artificial sewage made of water, sugar, ammonium phosphate and flour. When the bacteria were well established, they were fed some of the deadly waste water. The helpful bugs removed from 90% to 95% of the plutonium. A series of such tanks could reduce the water...

...ends fairly easily. The line-backers moved up quickly to keep the Indians from breaking the game wide open, but this made Holy Cross quite vulnerable to passes. The fact that the backers-up played close to the line, and indeed one of them would move in to form a seven-man line, meant that the defensive halfbacks would frequently reach a Dartmouth receiver just as he caught the ball on a button-hook pass. The defense was sucked completely out of position on Dartmouth's second touchdown; a 12-year-old could have caught Clayton's pass and scored...
