...from New York that handles most of the vocals. Half of the album is devoted to folk songs, half to rock. The PLP-LP concentrates on a broad evocation of working class solidarity, with only a little emphasis on the PLP itself, although many songs reflect PL's peculiarly arid brand of communism. And it is PL's position against drugs, often the focus of a facile dope smokers' criticism of PL, that provides the album with its best song.

Another major headache for Wilson was caused by debris left in the 2-in.-by-5-in. vacuum tube through which the protons travel inside the tunnel; the tube must be free of dust arid debris so that the speeding protons do not prematurely lose their energy in accidental collisions. Trouble was, workmen who removed the magnets left behind metal chips and other stray objects that fouled the tube. NAL scientists briefly considered recalling the tiny ferret that had helped cleanse the accelerator's subsidiary tube systems of debris (TIME, Oct. 4). But they eventually settled on a more...

That hidden water, he says, may be released periodically into the Martian atmosphere, producing regional rains and perhaps floods to erode the arid Martian surface. Bemused scientists at Caltech's Jet Propulsion Lab are now calling Smith's rains Martian "monsoons...

Throughout the conflict there had been a bizarre air of unreality in the West, as Pakistani army officials consistently claimed they were winning when quite the reverse was true. Late last week the Pakistani government still seemed unable to accept its defeat; simultaneously with the announcement of the ceasefire, officials handed newsmen an outline of Yahya's plans for a new constitution. Among other things, it provides "that the republic shall...
