...filled the air with fleeing Communists. On Danger, three Soviet airmen in a bomber escaped over the North Pole to find sanctuary near Boston; on NBC's Kraft TV Theater, two refugee Polish ballet dancers came to earth in New Hampshire; on CBS's Climax, a Russian scientist, carrying a horrifying canister of newfangled germs for bacterial warfare, almost made it to freedom before his plane crashed somewhere near Copenhagen. U.S. military and U.S. intelligence agents came off superbly in all these brisk encounters with the enemy, but the plays themselves were not very good...
Stapp, the careful scientist, recorded every novel sensation. He felt the risin; storm of the wind against his body, am the terrible thrust of the rockets. Durin; the five seconds that they burned, they accelerated the sled with a force of 7½ to 9 Gs,* pressing him back against the sea with 7½ to 9 times the weight of his body For about 2½ seconds he could see the track as a racing blur. Then his vision narrowed and blacked out altogether. Since he did not lose consciousness, he knew that the Gs had drained the blood...
...task is undertaken in the current issue of High Fidelity magazine by Frederic Grunfeld, who runs the Mutual Broadcasting System's Musical Almanac. Drawing heavily on the work of the eminent British social scientist and author, Stephen Potter (Gamesmanship, Lifemanship, etc.), Grunfeld develops in a series of case histories some basic principles of Diskmanship. Writes he: "A single record, properly selected and bestowed, can serve to establish beyond question the authority of the giver for a year or longer," and persuade the other fellow that he is hopelessly tin-eared. Some successful Diskmen...
Martin, a theoretical physicist, did not check his calculations experimentally, but he explained how it might be done by simple tests, and he invited other scientists to make the observations. Thus far, no scientist, French or foreign, has communicated to him any findings on the global effects of the H-bombs that have been exploded. This is not because the scientists are not interested, says Martin, or because they do not agree with him. He claims that many of them are privately on his side, but cannot support him publicly. He is sure that the world's weather bureaus...
...total of 23 per cent. One of the Administration's theories attributes the high percent of science majors to the influence of the Harvard Medical School located next to Boston Latin School, a heavy contributor to Dudley. It is reasonable that the financial security and prestige appeal of the scientist or doctor would appeal to practical-minded thinking of moderate income families. For years the only available literature in the old Dudley library was a few dog-eared medical school catalogues, now replaced with a set that covers every important school in the country. The practical bent of the commuter...
