...Mayo Clinic's Dr. Bayard T. Horton began the search for something that would be gentler in action and effective when taken by mouth. His chemist collaborators found betahistine dihydro-chloride, now manufactured under the trade name Sere by New Jersey's Unimed, Inc. Just approved for general prescription, Sere has already been taken by 14,000 patients under the care of almost 300 physicians. Because Meniere's symptoms come and go unpredictably, evaluation of any treatment is a long and tedious process. But in a careful double-blind study, in which neither doctor nor patient knew...
...different approaches offered be kept within the framework of one course, with the exception of a small accelerated group like the present Chem 11-12. The staff could offer variety in a course like Chem 20 by holding sections every week or every other week, where the pure chemist could invstigate mechanisms of reactions and the pre-med could examine the chemistry of hormones. For most lecture meetings, the groups would fuse...
...from U.N.C.L.E. It all reached a ridiculous if predictable end last week when CBS and NBC an nounced their latest replacement series -Mr. Terrific and Captain Nice. Terrific is a Milquetoast gas-station attendant who takes a pill and becomes a sort of CIA Superman. Nice is a Milquetoast chemist who takes a potion and becomes a police-department Superman. The quest for originality, in short, stops at the Nielsen lists, and fresh ideas are in as short supply as fresh talent...
Welfare for Watts. To do the research, U.C.L.A. has created the nucleus of a truly first-rate teaching staff, luring men from other campuses with annual salaries of $25,000 or more. From Rome's Istituto Superiore di Sanita came Chemist Daniel Bovet, a Nobel prizewinner in 1957. Another Nobel recipient, Willard Libby, helps make U.C.L.A.'s chemistry department one of the ten best in the U.S. In the past six years, U.C.L.A. has created ten new interdisciplinary study centers, ranging from brain research to medieval and Renaissance studies to space science, a College of Fine Arts, Schools...
...still more art than science. Doctors tend to take a patient seriously, of course, if he relates his threat to a particular happening or circumstance ("The next time they read my mind, I will . . .") or has the immediate means and resources to carry out his threat (a chemist who threatens to poison people...
