Brooks proposes to start with clothes that make "strong, simple statements"-like his red-on-pink dinner gown in crepe with velvet and satin jacket. He would also like to see Pat wear more jewelry, including fancy belts and long chain necklaces hung with crosses or medallions. But he suspects that the President would not approve...
...They Did It. The Rockefeller researchers, Drs. Robert B. Merrifield and Bernd Gutte, began their experiment with a tiny bead of plastic, onto which they hooked a 124-link chain of amino acids. There are 20 different amino acids, and, because all proteins, including enzymes, are made of amino-acid chains, the acids have been recognized for many years as the "building blocks of life." The exact sequence and identity of successive acids in the ribonuclease chain were recently established, and the Rockefeller team's job was to link them, one at a time. The painstaking process involved...
Most Christians, however, oppose the draft, and so do the majority of Beirut businessmen. "We will smash ourselves," says a chain-store manager. "We must not commit suicide.

SOMETHING more than James Q. Wilson's interest in bureaucracy lies behind this conclusion. In fact, because of the small number of administrators and the absence of any formal chain of command among them, often one does not know what the other is doing (not to mention that no one knows what the Med School is doing until they read the Boston papers). Last summer, for example, the Real Estate Office contracted to sell two houses to a local real estate agent, even though another office had proposed--albeit some time previously--to sell the houses to a neighborhood association...
