...effort to learn what goes on inside the mouth when people chew, drink or swallow, Dr. Samuel Adams II, 28, and his associates at Rochester, N.Y.'s Eastman Dental Dispensary, have been bugging the bridgework of volunteers with tiny radio transmitters fitted into dummy teeth. Crammed inside each electronic tooth are a transistor, an induction coil, two capacitors, a resistor and a hearing-aid battery- all miniaturized items developed by the Air Force. Once the radio denture is in place, the subject enters a Faraday cage, a metal-mesh enclosure that blocks out most outside electrical disturbances...
Pittsburgh is a city with a head of steam, a heart of steel and one subject on its tongue. The steel chieftains ponder it in their exclusive Duquesne Club; the middle managers anxiously debate it in the Bar D'Or at the Penn-Sheraton Hotel; the mill hands chew it along with pretzels and pistachios in beery saloons from Ambridge to Donora.

Comedy of Terrors is a lushly produced little parody of Hollywood scream fare, hopefully labeled a "horroromp." Vincent Price and the late Peter Lorre play a team of New England undertakers.

Zanzibar's Vice President Kassim Hanga, a Moscow-educated leftist, seemingly approved of the merger, but he can be just as poisonous as Babu, and may yet try to show Nyerere that he has bitten off more than he can chew. As for Babu himself, the two Presidents had carefully waited until he was off on a Far Eastern tour before breaking the news. In Pakistan, Babu was stunned, told newsmen who asked for comment that "I'd better keep my big mouth shut." Then he caught the next jet for home. Fearing that the big mouth might...
