...gravitation should be weakened by its own expansion into space is something that only mathematicians can discuss intelligently, but Professor Dicke believes that a practical test of the theory will soon be possible. Atomic clocks, which depend in no way on gravitation, are already accurate to one part in 1010 (one second in more than 300 years). If a clock that depends on gravitation can be made anywhere near as accurate, its rate can be compared with the rate of atomic clocks. If the two rates become increasingly different, it will mean, says Dr. Dicke, that the strength of gravitation...
Porter also finds that the growth of liver tumors he has observed does not depend on virus. "The growth may have been induced by a viral agent," he concluded, "but I don't think it's likely." Other forms of cancer, he added, may be virus-dependent...
...gets lung cancer and what type he gets may depend partly on constitutional factors, suggested Dr. Sheldon C. Sommers of La Jolla. The commonest form (epidermoid bronchogenic carcinoma) is associated not only with irritation from industrial fumes or heavy smoking, but also with a high level of male sex hor mones in the patients. Adenocarcinoma, less common, is the usual form in women and in men with high outputs of female hormones. A third type, called "oat-cell" or undifferentiated, occurs in men whose adrenal glands put out an excess of corti sone-type hormones...
...seminars, though originally aimed at non-Honors concentrators, are now valuable because they can "strengthen the intellectual life of a House" at all levels, Monro said. He commented that the overall goals of the seminar program, such as furthering Faculty-student contact, did not depend on the seminars' being oriented toward one particular student group...
...enough that Dr. Schwarz arouses an intense desire in the American people to learn about Communism for themselves? Your question of what, specifically, Dr. Schwarz "gives" us bears little relevance to his importance. Why must he give us anything? Why not dispense with the chronic American failure to depend upon someone else to tell us what...
