A school should not be diverted from great constructive ends to picayune, sentimental, and retrogressive side issues; it should not sacrifice a major quality of civilization to an unrealistic concern for an unfortunate group which, although a real social problem, is not an educational...
Instead of the Kolff lung, the Houston team used a bubble oxygenator, which pumps oxygen into a column of blood withdrawn from the body. (The methods of taking the blood in and out of the body, and pumping it, are similar in the two techniques.)

...long since withdrawn from the gas business, reported a 12% increase in domestic electric power consumption last year in the 2,319 small communities (none over 150,000 population) in its market area. But AGE's hungriest customers are the power-consuming plants that have been lured into the area by plentiful, low price power, e.g., the Atomic Energy Commission's huge Portsmouth, Ohio, project whose round-the-clock 1,800,000 kw. appetite is met by AGE (38%) and 14 other utilities that combined to form the $400 million Ohio Valley Electric Corp...
