...exposure to the cosmic rays did not seem to damage any of the animals. Some of the black mice grew a few white hairs, presumably caused when cosmic rays passed through hair follicles. No other bodily damage was noted. Major Simons admits, of course, that cosmic rays kill tissue cells, but he does not think any part of an animal's body is seriously damaged by the loss of a few cells. Genetic damage is another matter. If a cosmic ray hits a reproductive cell (sperm or ovum), it can cause the birth of an imperfect individual. Major Simons...
...father-in-law pushed him around; Gross insisted that Sol had asked him for $15,000 as his price for a divorce. At any rate, a police radio car soon pulled up to the marquee of the Century. Sol lingered long enough to pick up two books for cell reading: a cookbook, and How to Make Marriage Successful. When he got outside, he found that his father-in-law had gone off to the police station stylishly, in a cab. But, said Sol, "I'm a poor schnook.*I got into the radio...

...that time the Times shifted him from Washington to his present job in New York, where he assembles a daily news summary and index. Though he gave the subcommittee names of his Communist cell mates at the Daily Press in 1937-39-the list was not made public-Knowles said that he knew no Communists on the Times. Missouri's Senator Tom Hennings broke into Knowles's testimony to praise his work as a Washington reporter. Later, Hennings taxed Counsel J. G. Sourwine with not giving subcommittee members advance notice of witnesses, and questioned whether any "useful purpose...
...Cell at the Trib. Other witnesses were less cooperative. Alden Whitman, 42, a Times copyreader since 1951, admitted having been a Communist from 1935 through 1948, but refused to name any other party members. After tough questioning, Counsel Sourwine pried out of him the admission that he had belonged to a Communist cell with "perhaps a half-dozen members" on the New York Herald Tribune while working there as a copyreader from 1943 to 1951. The Trib, which had been giving the hearings the splashiest play in town, grabbed Sourwine right after the session and later quoted him: "We have...
