...Minnesota's massive center to do everything from making mosaics to hearing lunchtime chamber music by the Minneapolis Symphony. Bowlers at Ohio State's union play 200,000 games a year; its cafeterias serve 800,000 meals. The University of California's six-level center at Berkeley is a $6.7 million crazy quilt that wags call "Jack Tar East" after a garish San Francisco hotel; it will soon become a four-building center housing 150 student clubs, a 2,000-seat auditorium, a hushed "meditation room" and a raucous snack bar inevitably called "Bear's Lair...

...Berkeley researchers made a significant breakthrough eight years ago when they learned that tiny bodies (chloro-plasts) from plant cells can carry on photosynthesis all by themselves. Using isolated chloroplasts from spinach leaves, Dr. Arnon and his colleagues found that they could study the role of light without being bothered by the other chemical processes that take place in the normal plant cell. After tedious experiment, they decided that when green plant pigment (chlorophyll) is struck by sunlight its molecules become so excited that they shake loose some electrons. And those electrons eventually help to form some of the basic...

But some time between 1970 and 1973, when the construction costs of the nuclear plants are finally paid off, the longer life of atomic fuel should even things up. This ten-year wait for a payoff does not worry the British...
