...beat a path to the white marble Senate Caucus Room. Even the in-laws are not immune to the sudden fevers: Bobby's wife Ethel, often accompanied by two or three of her older children, was a daily onlooker at the hearings last summer, well into the seventh month of her seventh pregnancy. When the Peter Lawfords encountered a new parlor game, Conversations,* it was only a matter of days before all the Kennedys were doing what comes naturally in all their parlors all over the U.S. And when Jack got into politics, the entire clan plunged in with...
Decades ago Cecil B. DeMille went to Oberammergau, saw the Passion Play, and left with a vision of all the great celluloid saint-and-sinner-ramas that he hoped to produce. Last week, to attend the century's seventh production of the 300-year-old Bavarian pageant, pilgrims 'crowded into Bavaria in Peugeots, Rolls-Royces, light aircraft, bikes and buses. As the play went on and on and on, lids closed over once reverent eyes: what everyone had come to see-from seats of softest oak-was nothing less than DeMille squared, a seven-hour pseudo-Biblical presentation...
...that had the range to strike from home bases in the U.S. The Air Force moved up to the long-legged B-52 jet, which, refueled by tankers based at U.S. outposts, can fly missions from North America to any Communist target. The Navy equipped its Sixth (Mediterranean) and Seventh (Pacific) fleets with enough tankers and supply ships to operate, if necessary, from home bases. The missile future promises more of the same trend; the Navy's Polaris submarines can range around the world, and the Air Force's intercontinental missiles can be fired 7,500 miles from...
...typical case is that of iodine. No fewer than 21 radioisotopes of this element can be prepared, and the medical profession has found ways to use six of them. Last week Ohio State University's Dr. William G. Myers reported that a seventh, I-125, shows promise as a convenient tracer to follow the metabolic pathways of ordinary iodine. But it has not yet been used in humans. An odd mother-daughter combination is ruthenium-rhodium 106. Long-lived ruthenium 106 gives birth to short-lived rhodium 106, which in turn gives off energetic beta rays. The pair...
...routes, National-the nation's seventh-ranking airline-lacks the aircraft needed. It will probably find it difficult to raise the cash for new planes. Delta Air Lines, the sixth largest U.S. air carrier, is well fixed. But oddly enough, since hustling Delta is stronger, it got the less attractive routes. Its routes start in Atlanta and branch out only after Albuquerque to San Francisco and Los Angeles, while National's net starts in Miami, spreads out from Houston to Los Angeles and San Francisco. Stodola's recommendations must be acted on by the full...
