Called the Cambridge Electron Accelerator, the machine cost $12 million (paid by the Atomic Energy Commission), is 236 ft. in diameter, and consumes enough electricity at full power to operate 40 medium-sized TV stations. Its practical use is nil. It will never freshen sea water, cure cancer, or solve any other specific problem of applied science. But in the hands of Harvard and M.I.T. scientists, it will probe far beyond the frontier of present physical knowledge. No one knows what waits to be found in this dark region, but physicists are sure it is packed with wonderful secrets...

A few may remain dormant, so we cannot say the patient is cured-only that his disease is arrested." But many patients can be treated at home from the start. "Others can be treated briefly, in a general hospital, and then go home. Bold surgery...
Panelist Kenneth S. Lynn '45, associate professor of English, suggested that much of Feiffer's humor is the satire is "a sidewalk Freudianism which down through the suburbs."
