...trifle with elements of homosexual humor-through their hilarious, Oscar-winning The Music Box (1932), to the sad, tired, misconceived mishmash, Atoll K (1952). In all, the dim-witted duo made 90 films as a team, immortalizing such mannerisms as Ollie's blushing "tie twiddle" and exasperated slow burn and Stan's tearless, whimpering crying jag and flip-flopping walk (which he achieved by cutting the soles off his shoes). For some reason, women do not appreciate the humor as much as men do. Unlike Chaplin, who was ever the champion of the innocent heroine, Laurel and Hardy...
...diplomat from Red China takes second place to no one. Last winter 30 embassy aides in Moscow were pummeled by irate Russians while they tried to protect a Chinese propaganda display. In April, Indonesian troops had to be called out to disperse a mob that was preparing to burn down China's Djakarta embassy. Ten Chinese aides ousted from India two weeks ago filed into their plane wearing conspicuous bandages on their heads. Expelled in reprisal for Chinese violence against two Indian diplomats, the Chinese said they had been beaten in New Delhi. Last week two Burmese climbed over...
...make a mistake," said the celebrated painter. "Let's not call my stuff art. There are about half a dozen here I'd like to burn right now."

Inflammation, all agreed, is one of nature's most basic defenses against injury. As such, Dr. Houck pointed out, it has to be enormously versatile because the injury may be a stabbing or abrasive wound, a burn, or invasion by infectious microbes. Even a sterile, uninfected wound summons inflammation to its aid. Since nature cannot construct individual defenses against an infinite variety of attacks from innumerable sources, said the Upjohn Co.'s Dr. E. Myles Glenn, it mobilizes everything at hand-the immune and clotting mechanisms, the blood-forming and lymph systems, the liver, and many others. Sometimes...
...visualize the overall inflammatory process," said Dr. Glenn, "as a wave or chain of cellular destruction." The first result of injury is to cut cells open, in the case of a stab wound or burn, or to weaken their membranes, in the case of many infections or poisoning by plants or animals. Either way, powerful chemicals that had been locked inside the cells, some in leakproof packages, spill...
