...fanatic Kun nationalized all estates of more than 100 acres, abolished servants, ordered all jewelry seized, and decreed that a man could own no more than two suits, four shirts and four pairs of socks. Kun's strong-arm methods and inflationary money found no favor with the peasants, who boycotted the markets. Meanwhile, Hungary's military and aristocracy were rallying to another banner, that of Admiral Nicholas Horthy, a former naval aide to the Emperor Franz Josef and a naval hero in World War I.

At Miami's Orange Bowl, a Northern eleven, led by Oklahoma's All-America Halfback Tommy McDonald and leaning heavily on the good passing arm of Purdue's Len Dawson, beat the pride of the South, 17-7.

Seaborg uses them to demonstrate the manipulation of highly radioactive substance. In one film, for example, he extemporizes while a mechanical arm juts out from a wall, picks up a flashlight and directs a beam into a vat of boiling fluid. Another arm lifts a bottle of deadly radioactive fluid and pours a tiny but lethal amount into a test tube. A third mops the floor. Some of the shows deal with...
