...main types. All can cause paralysis, but one type causes more than the others combined. Within each type there are many different strains. The Salk vaccine is made by taking a representative strain of each type and growing it-till it reaches many times its original strength-in a broth made with snips of monkey kidney. (To keep production going, 4,000 monkeys a month are flown in from India and the Philippines.) Then the virus in each deadly brew is killed with formaldehyde. Strangely, although the virus particles now lose their power to multiply or to cause disease, they...
...switch to native Korean dress. The bright and multicolored costumes include long skirts (chima) and short, flared blouses (chogori).

A run on velvets and silks? For just one movie-studio dinner, velvet and silk and chiffon were turned into half a million dollars' worth of dresses; custom-made hats...
...British soldiers, who know perfectly well why they were sent there, have been given tender care by the Port San Carlos citizens while awaiting orders to move out. Falklanders are generous enough to offer the troops mutton broth, but are probably considerate enough not to offer them sheep's brains fritters, an island specialty and clearly an acquired taste.
