Finding out how the pieces fitted back together was much harder. Sometimes Sanger and his group would find in their analysis some substance that does not appear in the known chemistry of living things. This, they decided, must be a taillike fragment knocked off some larger fragment. They would shift it around, like a piece in a jigsaw puzzle, until they found a spot where it could be placed to form a familiar compound. Little by little, their picture of the insulin molecule took on detail. At last they were sure they knew where each building block belonged...
Minister of Education Armando Méndez San Martin, unwilling to appear less ardent than Aloé, joined in the brainwashing. Fixing on the Estrada publishing house as the worst offender, he banned its third, fourth, fifth and sixth-grade readers. Last week cops raided schools and stores to confiscate Estrada books. Congress lent a helping hand: it made Eva Perón's The Explanation of My Life required reading for all schoolchildren...
Charles Keene would have blushed at such praise. A shy, quiet man, he lived out his life resigned to the idea that he was merely a plodding potboiler. He saw his first signed drawing appear in Punch in 1854, and when he died, 37 years and some 3,000 cartoons later, he was still sketching for Punch on a piecework basis.

Eric Linklater, in whose latest novel these uncommon scenes appear, explains with grinning relish. A Scotsman to the brisket, Linklater believes that English M.P.s have treated his native land so stingily that it is time they got a comeuppance. A onetime chancellor of the University of Aberdeen, Linklater also knows his classical drama and how to make it a vehicle for his grouch. Laxdale Hall is a modern variation on Euripides' Bacchanals, in which sobersided King Pentheus is first treed, then torn apart by furious women because he has forbidden them to join in the orgies of the wine...
...stamps the envelopes, another counts them into bundles of 100, still another slits them for easy opening. In the case of a subscription order, all the necessary information is put on to a set of I.B.M. tabulating cards by a keypunch machine. The subscriber's name and address appear in printed form on only one of the cards, and the address sticker which is glued to the copy of TIME each week is copied from this card. This is done on a facsimile machine, a fantastic electric eye device which "reads" the printing with a light beam and reprints...
