In laboratories across the U.S. and Europe, researchers are finding that by creating the right chemical environment, and in some cases implanting new cells in the brain, damaged nervous systems can be coaxed to regenerate. Even more encouraging is the discovery, so far shown only in animals, that cellular regrowth can restore lost mental functions, and, in addition, improve memory and learning...
Mobile Communications is one of many common carriers that are also applying for cellular radio licenses. The FCC plans to designate two for each city. One of the two everywhere will be a telephone company. A big winner will be American Telephone & Telegraph Co., which pioneered in development of the new technology.
