...delta town of My Tho (there were no prisoner-of-war camps in the region at the time). Recently, an alert South Vietnamese policeman noticed the strong resemblance between the jumbo photos of Be in the Hanoi press and a rather withdrawn Viet Cong prisoner in a corner cell. Astounded to hear of his courageous exploits, Be soon saw the wisdom of his interrogators' assurance that he was valuable to the Viet Cong only as a dead Red, and thus could never rejoin them. He decided to cooperate, gratefully accepted a clean white shirt and told the real story...
...Taste of Power traces a Communist tough's devious path to a cell at the top, first as a hard-drinking guerrilla fighter, then as a brutal apparatchik. Mňačko weaves a picture of a pathetic, subhuman instrument of an inhuman system that ultimately traps and isolates him. Unlike some Communist contemporaries who view their success from prison,* Mňačko still haunts the Olympia Grill, his favorite bar in Prague, where he is treated like a local hero. "All of the incidents in the book are true," he said last week. "We thought...
...ANTILYMPHOCYTE TREATMENT. One way to depress white-cell and antibody activity is to introduce antibody against the lymphocytes themselves. So thymus glands, spleens and lymph nodes are removed from human cadavers, and the extract is injected into horses. The horses' rejection mechanism goes to work and makes particles active against the human lymphocytes. The horses are later bled, antilymphocyte serum is extracted, and may be further refined to a globulin fraction. At the University of Colorado, a team headed by Dr. Thomas Starzl has performed 19 successful transplants since last June; given antilymphocyte globulin, the patients have got along...

...Angelo brought out the best in each other. She was passionate. He responded. She recoiled violently -- she wanted to save a brother, not receive a lover. He hated her rejection, became brutal. I'd go see the scene twice more. John Mac-Fayden's (Claudio) scene in his cell with Miss Moss ticked along too. I didn't like David Hammond as Vincento. Some faults were the part's; some his. He behaved like a busybody old maid and the way he swept around the stage propelled by long thin whirring hands didn't help...
