...Skylab astronauts also obtained closeup views of erupting prominences, which consist of relatively cool clouds of ionized (or charged) gases that have temperatures of only about 6,000° F., compared with typical temperatures of 2,000,000° elsewhere in the corona. Before Skylab 2, solar physicists thought the phenomenon was relatively rare. Now it has been observed about once every two weeks, followed by periods of radio interference on earth. The astronauts also made observations of so-called solar bright points; although the points were previously thought to be concentrated in the sun's active equatorial belts...
Soaring land values also lead many builders to put up "town houses" which are stuck lead together wall-to-wall. Other developments consist of misnamed "mobile homes" (median price: $6,950), which are often trailers anchored to one spot. They are about all that buyers can afford after paying for the ground...
...WILL the Left counter this anticipated appeal? Most likely, the rebuttal will consist of a grim recital of the facts. The ROTC program at Harvard before the Indochina War obviously did nothing to mitigate the horrors of the war. As for the humanity of Harvard men, no statistics exist for the incidence of atrocities among ground troops, but at the top of the command chain the criminal venture was planned by Harvard men--McGeorge Bundy, former dean of the Faculty, Robert MacNamara, a graduate of the Business School, and later Henry A. Kissinger '50, a former professor of Government...
...looks gray, with just a hint of green around the gills. But there is more than mere looks to Robert Mitchum's performance as Eddie Coyle, the aging, small-time hood with a big-time survival problem. The weariness, the hooded cynicism, the underlying toughness that seems to consist more of an ability to survive beatings rather than administer them-all have always been there, unspoken factors in a career that has consisted largely of trying to transcend roles that did not fully engage one of the most active and original intelligences in the star business. Now, at last...
What the new program might consist of was not clear-if indeed Nixon had decided (he warned the Cabinet not to guess "as to what I'm going to do"). But the President's options seemed to fall into three main categories...
