Even before his formal announcement, it was back to nature for Humphrey last week, and his own nature is to dream big dreams, to spin off grand ideas, to talk persuasively in his own behalf. While repeatedly paying homage to Johnson and the "Johnson-Humphrey Administration's record," he is now investing most of his oratorical capital in what lies beyond. He sorely needs to establish a personal identity again. "I am my own man," he told a West Virginia television audience. "I am my own personality with all its limitations...

...pitching and pool-plus a dash of chess strategy. A rink (four-man team) scores one point for each stone it keeps closer to the bull's-eye than any rival stones. An expert curler can slide his stone more than 100 ft. down the ice with a spin so fine that it will curl tightly between two enemy stones and settle on the bull's-eye. He can also send his stone thundering into the target to scatter enemy stones like tenpins while leaving his own team's untouched. The idea of sweeping is to melt...

...civilian spin-off of Lockheed's C-5A military transport program, will carry passengers eight across in coach class and six across in first class. Two aisles toward the sides of the plane will separate the eight seats into a two-four-two arrangement. The plane can also carry 345 people, all in tourist class. Meals will be cooked on a lower deck, sent by elevator to the passenger level. The Rolls engines will carry the big jets 3,160 miles at speeds equivalent to today's jets, but the L-101ls will need less landing and takeoff...

...rudimentary demonstration of their theory, Rouse and Bisque used children's Modeling Dough to mold a mantle around a solid core. The core was attached to a spindle that the scientists used to spin their model earth, accelerating it to simulate the effects of tugging magnetic fields. When the modeling compound dried and formed a thin crust, its larger cracks clearly defined major stress planes that were tangent to the core...
