Droplets in Flood. Schorer, now professor of English at the University of California at Berkeley, spent nine years preparing this elaborate biography. The amount of detail might have staggered Lewis himself, who worshiped detail. To extract two droplets from the flood: the book reveals that the four cords of wood that Dr. Lewis asked his son to chop on Feb. 23, 1903, were really 4¼ cords, and that on a Canadian trip in 1924 Lewis passed through Goose Lake, Snake Lake, Trout Lake, Clam Lake and Lac la Ronge. Research is the opium of the biographers; when...
...Lewis Goldberg '11, and rested the state's case. So yesterday's session consisted of examination and cross-examination of the defense's first witnesses, Harry T. Moore, an authority on D. H. Lawrence from the University of Southern Illinois, and Mark Schorer, critic, and professor of English at Berkeley...
...other acquisitions: Albert H. Hastorf, chairman of Dartmouth's psychology department; Emile Despres, chairman of Williams' economics department; and James H. Clancy, head of State University of Iowa's theater arts department. For academic larceny, Stanford is fast matching the University of California at Berkeley-the only other Western U.S. campus that cares or dares to compare itself with Harvard...
...real. At least five search parties in separate laboratories reported no luck. Then, under the leadership of Yugoslav Physicist Dr. Bodgan C. Maglic, scientists at the University of California's famed Lawrence Radiation Laboratory analyzed 2,500 photographs of the four-prong stars found when antiprotons shot from Berkeley's bevatron accelerator collide with protons in a bubble chamber. Each star shows four curved lines made by negative and positive pions (pi mesons) created by the collision. There seemed to be a slight chance that careful examination would show that in some cases some of the star lines...
...single unit. That unit lives for only 10²² (one ten-thousand-billion-billionth) seconds. It travels only one ten-billionth of a centimeter before it disintegrates. But in the precise world of physics, this short life is enough to get a particle classed as actual matter. The Berkeley physicists decided that their invisible particle was the long-sought omega...
