Through its own training program, General Electric discovered that the flow of ideas from its middle-echelon executives increased 300%. International Business Machines is a brainstorm booster; Chrysler Corp. has tried it, and so have Union Carbide & Carbon, Celanese Corp., American Oil Co., U.S. Steel, Radio Corp. of America, Boeing Airplane Co. Even if the ideas themselves are unworkable, the discussion shakes up workers and bosses alike. Says Chrysler's William D. Merrifield, boss of the company's industrial education program: "The main thing is 'to develop a climate among your executives that is favorable...
According to Anthropologist David Cole, who is photographing the carvings, modern Indians of the Northwest have no traditions about the ancient people who made the rock carvings. The carvings themselves cannot be dated by any known method, but carbon-14 tests of an organic material from a nearby mound show that the region was inhabited 9,000 years ago. Presumably the rock carvers depended on the Columbia salmon, as later Indians did, but where they came from and what happened to them no one knows. The mystery may be solved by study of the carvings- if they are saved...

...Ohio bends into West Virginia, the advantages of cheap power and good water, plus a vast underground block of salt 200 miles long and more than 100 ft. thick, have attracted scores of chemical companies: Columbia?Southern Chemical Corp., Koppers Co., Shea Chemical Corp., Union Carbide & Carbon Corp., Monsanto Chemical. Farther along, other companies are spending over $300 million to make everything from jet-engine parts to autos and electronic tubes...
...mesons disintegrate in two-millionths of a second, each forming an electron and two neutrinos, and this lifetime is too short to permit thermal motions in the carbon block to disturb them appreciably. When they lodge in the carbon, they are all spinning in the same direction, and under these conditions the parity principle requires that when they disintegrate, they must shoot out the same number of electrons in each direction along their common spin axis...
