Unless the Ad Board reverses its past positions to permit the team to compete in the NCAA's, Coach Shepard will leave Cambridge for Florida tomorrow. The victory over Yale and its retiring coach, Ethan Allan, left him with a career mark of 215 wins, 106 defeats and four ties...
...Harvard pediatricians--Dr. Allan M. Butler, professor of Pediatrics, Emeritus, and Dr. Samuel L. Katz, assistant professor of Pediatrics--each read statements of support for Spock yesterday at a press conference in the basement of the Arlington St. Church...
Cataclysmic Collision. To determine the actual deceleration rate of universal expansion, Allan Sandage, of the Mt. Wilson and Palomar observatories, and other astronomers have been plotting graphs of the brightness of both nearby and distant galaxies versus their red shift.* From the resulting curves, they have approximated the deceleration of the galaxies as they recede from the earth. If his data is correct, says Sandage, galaxies have been racing away from each other for 10 billion years or so, but are slowing down rapidly enough to bring them to a halt in another 30 billion years. From that time...
...today's practitioners acknowledge the pioneering efforts made by New Jersey-born Allan Kaprow, 40, who a decade ago began creating recognizable environments. One of the earliest was his 1962 Words; it consisted simply of random words lettered on pieces of paper that spectators were invited to staple at random onto the walls of a room. The idea, Kaprow explains now, was to create an intentionally sloppy, three-dimensional roomful of random art, in the abstract expressionist mode of the 1950s, when the wall-filling action canvases of Jackson Pollock were already being referred to as "environmental painting." Kaprow...
...faint blue star that Cambridge University astronomers have associated with pulsar 1, Astronomer William Liller located it on a number of Harvard Observatory photographs taken between 1897 and 1952. During that interval, he reported, the average visible light from the star had not varied significantly. And in California, Astronomer Allan Sandage announced that he plans to train the 200-in. Mount Palomar telescope on the blue star to detect any second-by-second variation in its light intensity that might coincide with pulsar 1's radio variation...
