...while still a student at the high-rated Bronx High School of Science, he got interested in a paper by Professor John D. Kraus of Ohio State University. Dr. Kraus reported that a satellite speeding through the outer fringe of the atmosphere trails an ionized wake that can reflect certain kinds of radio waves. Teaming up with his friend Perry Klein, another teen-age New York ham, "Ray" Soifer wrote the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge for detailed schedules of satellite orbits. Whenever a satellite, U.S. or Russian, passed at a reasonable distance, the boys tried to bounce radio waves...
Next week the collection of a man who has both goes on view at the Milwaukee Art Center, demonstrates some of the good things that Americans have yet to discover in their own heritage. The 125 canvases, roughly half the collection of Detroit Businessman Larry Fleischman, reflect a warmly romantic taste, and uncompromising standards too. Among them: The Uncanny Badger is a strange picture by John La Farge, a mural painter and stained-glass designer of renown who worked mostly in Manhattan's Greenwich Village. It was inspired by a trip to Japan with his famed friend, Historian-Biographer...

I.L.N.'s features reflect the far-ranging enthusiasms of its editor. Convinced that "monarchy is the backbone of our nation," Ingram faithfully records the movements of the royal family, extends this interest to crowned heads from Tokyo (characteristic caption: "Another charming picture of the Japanese royal family") to Teheran (recent example: a shot displaying new Queen Farah's shapely legs to full advantage). World War I Captain Ingram is also partial to new weapons, runs meticulously detailed, cutaway drawings that have delighted readers from the time of the Dreadnought to the present-day Nautilus. Ingram has never...
