...year-old military jet pilot would pay (an annual $1,810 standard premium with a $375 surcharge for extra hazard), but still less than steeplejacks. Since the standard premium varies with age, Senior Astronaut John H. Glenn Jr., 41, gets the highest bill. The lowest? To Major L. Gordon Cooper, 36, pounding along the beach at Cape Canaveral as a warm-up for his scheduled 22-orbit mission this week, which could be the biggest TV spectacular in many a moon (see SCIENCE...
...under construction near Tokyo. If it holds out until the summer of 1964, it will be able to bounce the Olympic Games by color TV from Japan directly to the U.S. Long before that it may relay to Europe from the U.S. the facial expressions of Astronaut Gordon Cooper orbiting the earth, and the glorious view of the oceans and continents from his Mercury capsule...
...Bissinger has carefully rehearsed one of the finest casts assembed on a Harvard stage in recent years. As the fisherman who suspects the Americans' motives, Harry Cooper is vivid and strong. Anne Lilley Kerr is convincing in her desire, and Josephine Simon succeeds in transforming Rachel Verney's unique postwar experience into one of dramatic pertinence. Otto Holmberg turns the not-too-intriguing son into a sympathetic figure...
After the patient's head is shaved, he is given a local anesthetic at a carefully calculated spot on his head. Dr. Cooper then makes an incision and bores a hole in the patient's skull. He places a bow-shaped instrument of his own design around the patient's head, and using the instrument as a guide, carefully threads a long cannula (tube) toward the thalamus at the center of the brain...
...rays help Dr. Cooper in locating the spot that he wants to freeze in the thalamus. But to make sure that his cannula is on target, he conducts a simple test. A small amount of liquid nitrogen is pumped to the cannula tip to cool the thalamus. Dr. Cooper asks the patient to raise his hand. If the hand stops shaking, Dr. Cooper is assured that his cannula is properly placed; more liquid nitrogen is pumped through the cannula to destroy permanently a larger area in the thalamus. Thus far, Dr. Cooper has used his technique on 1,000 patients...
