...Nazi Germany's greatest gifts to the U. S. is Professor Hans Albrecht Bethe of Cornell University. A brilliant theorist in atomic physics, modest, demure Dr. Bethe probes straight to the core of an abstruse problem, then brings to bear on that core his remarkable mathematical equipment so that the answer comes leap ing out like a weasel out of a smoked hole. Educated at Kiel, Frankfort and Munich, Hans Bethe, whose mother is Jewish, was holding a post at Munich when the Nazis came in. He left Germany in 1933, taught and researched in England for a while...
Hinge of the "door" was the Fifth Army commanded by the German Crown Prince Starting from the Trier-Saarbrtücken area (where fighting is most active this time), his course was through Luxembourg and Longwy in a short arc southwest to Verdun. The Fourth Army, under Duke Albrecht, was to swing in a wider arc through Luxembourg into the dense Ardennes forest, cross the Meuse and the Aisne northwest of the Crown Prince's Army, and sweep south toward Châlons. Other concentric arcs were mapped for the Third and Second Armies under Generals Hausen...
...meeting of the venerable, rich American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia last week, grey, gentle Astronomer Henry Norris Russell of Princeton (see p. 58) explained what he considers the most reasonable modern theory on this question. The theory was worked out mathematically by Dr. Hans Albrecht Bethe of Cornell, a brilliant analyst of atomic behavior. Dr. Bethe sat down to figure out what atomic reactions would occur often enough to be important in the sun's energy economy, yet not so often as to use up the supply of some important ingredient in a hurry. He found that, at temperatures...
Married. Archduke Albrecht of Habsburg, 40, pretender to the Hungarian throne; and Kathlin Bocskai, 22, onetime Hungarian schoolteacher; in Budapest. Like his cousin, Archduke Carlos (see above), Albrecht's marriage (his second) cost him his royal rank...
...those done in the 19th century by such artists as David, Delacroix, and Manet. Only one contemporary work is shown, a picture of two horses by Chirico which almost seems to be a reversion to the primitive style of the East. Represented also are paintings and drawings by Albrecht Durer, Sassetta, Leonardi da Vinci, Rubens, and Goya. From the 19th and 20th centuries come Daumer, Stubbs, and Degas...
