...Ashfield reasons that victims of severe heart attacks not only feel and appear breathless-they are actually oxygen-starved because neither heart nor lungs are working efficiently. For his tests he has chosen only patients who have had severe, potentially fatal heart attacks. He puts them in the chamber for a minimum of four days (one man stayed in for ten days). The patient breathes pure oxygen under pressure for two hours; then the lid is opened, and he breathes ordinary air for one hour. This cycle is repeated around the clock. Of Ashfield's first 40 patients, only...
...crowd has led to the roar of the grease paint. Candidates have learned that the important thing is not so much what they say but that they say something that will get them on the evening news. "Our leaders," says Columbia University President Grayson Kirk, "are expected to appear almost on call before the television cameras, to hold innumerable press conferences, and to share their thoughts, even if they may be fragmentary and half-formed, with everyone in the country.

Despite sonorous allusions to such major artists as Brecht, Goethe...
...after he graduated from Harvard College in 1937. He has written 13 books--none of which has sold particularly well--and countless articles for the New Yorker and several other well known magazines. Since October, Kahn has been in Cambridge, extensively researching a book about Harvard which will probably appear first as a series of articles in the New Yorker early...
