...Place Like Home (NBC, 5:30-6:30 p.m.). A revue with music and lyrics by Mary Rodgers and Marshall Barer, the Once Upon a Mattress team, with José Ferrer and his wife Rosemary Clooney, Dick Van Dyke and Carol Burnett. Color...
...book and lyrics have been rewritten, by Bill Hoffman and Marshall Barer respectively, in a grinding discord of styles: "Somebody goofed" alternates with "Such audacity deserves punishment." Mr. Marre has engaged Broadway performers rather than singers of any pretensions, but none of them can make very much headway against the stubbornly unfunny material...
Once Upon a Mattress (book by Jay Thompson, Marshall Barer, Dean Fuller; music by Mary Rodgers; dances by Joe Layton) is a cocktail-hour version of the children's-hour fairy story, The Princess on the Pea. The princess, as every pre-TV schoolchild recalls, is a lady so sensitive that she can feel a pea through a great thickness of mattresses, thereby passes the test of royalty and may marry the prince. Mattress' bookmakers offer odds that there was more to this yam than met the eye of Hans Christian Andersen. Apart from the boob-catching title...
...Robert Barer of Oxford University, England, is sure he has licked the problem. He uses monochromatic (single wave length) ultraviolet at an intensity which is too low to hurt the cell. It is also too feeble to make a useful impression on a fluorescent screen or photographic plate, so Barer focuses the invisible image, enlarged with a reflecting microscope to about three inches in diameter, on a screen. Then, by means of a rapidly revolving mirror, he "scans"' the image, throwing the ultraviolet light from a narrow slice of it into a photomultiplier tube. The faint glimmer of ultraviolet...
...series of these curves taken from successive slices of the image can be turned into patterns of light and shade, and built into a picture in ultraviolet of the still-healthy cells. But Dr. Barer is after bigger game. The curves show how much of the ultraviolet is absorbed by each region in the cell. These figures, in turn, give a strong hint of what chemicals are present in each of the cell's parts. Dr. Barer hopes that his apparatus will allow biologists to watch fragile, transparent cells as they live their normal lives and to chart...
