Once the electrons have been accelerated or "ponderated," the aim is to direct a beam into the experimental area where measurements can be made of the unusual properties and inter-actions. One method already devised is to place a target in the part of the electron beam; this will transform the electrons into X-rays of very high energy. Because they are uncharged, these rays will not be deflected by the magnetic field of the accelerator and will continue on a straight tangential line into the experimental area. Physicists would also like to be able to deflect a beam...
Next Marcus began buying Artloom stock, in June got himself elected chairman of the board. Thereafter he repeated his old spiel about big mergers to transform Artloom into a diversified manufacturing company. As before, the stock started up.

Said the Mexico City weekly Siempre: "We stand with Mr. Nixon...
...Andes. Two years ago he resigned the university job to lead the opposition to Dictator Rojas. Before his own acceptance last week, Lleras had ruefully spelled out the qualifications for a Colombian president. He must be, said Lleras, "a magician, prophet, redeemer, savior and pacifier who can transform a ruined republic into a prosperous one, can make the prices of the things we export rise and the value of the things we consume drop." As the May 4 election date drew near, Colombians seemed convinced that Lleras was the man who came closest...
