...this story, and the Advocate has done him a positive disservice in printing it. Anyone who could write "Harry was a painter, his group was excited and wild, so Jody never fit in there," needs training in the fundamentals of English syntax, and greatly sharpened sensitivity in the semi-circular canals...
...Kenneth Green proudly reported that the world's biggest atom smasher, the Brookhaven alternating gradient synchrotron, was now in full-scale operation. Costing $31 million, the synchrotron can generate up to 33 or 34 billion electron volts (BEV) by boosting protons through an underground circular metal tube at fantastic speeds...
...getting increasingly difficult; the newest element was so frail that it decayed almost before anyone recognized that it was around. It was manufactured, explained a lab team (Albert Ghiorso, Torbjorn Sikkeland, Almon E. Larsh and Robert M. Latimer), by coating thin nickel foil with a circular film of artificial californium (element 98) only one-tenth of an inch in diameter. Placed in a container filled with helium gas, this tiny target was bombarded by a beam of boron nuclei from the lab's heavy-ion linear accelerator. Most of the boron bullets missed, but a few scored a bull...

Shortly before the club's elections an angry young committee sent around a circular letter protesting "present conditions in the club," and attacking its executives for lack of purpose. Yet, despite this uproar, last night's election meeting, attended by 26 per cent of the club's members, voted in an entire slate of new officers unopposed. One can only conclude that nobody really means what he says in the HYDC...
