Last month, curious Chicagoans saw this dream monster in broad daylight. Fathered by the Armour Institute of Technology, of which Dr. Poulter is a scientific director, whelped by the Pullman works and christened Penguin I, it bumbled through the streets on a test run, got stuck under a viaduct. Extricated, it waddled off two days later for Boston at a speed of 10 m.p.h., sometimes less, paused to nose a truck in Columbia City, Ind., slithered off the highway into Mrs. Cleo Watkin's cow pasture near Gomer, Ohio, and came to rest with its nose in a drainage...
...among departments--a substitute for the President's Fund--is being worked out. These two plans supply ample basis for a great deal of flexibility in Harvard's promotion scheme.

...Kirk hopes that the test will soon be adopted by the health departments of 19 States which are bound by law to test all applicants for marriage licenses. Much cheaper than a Wassermann test (which takes a day), although requiring just as skilled attention, a Laughlen test should cost State health departments no more than 4?. It may also be useful in making quick tests of the health of prospective blood donors when emergency transfusions are necessary-as they may be if World War II should develop into The Next...
