...teaching level of the Physics department is at a discouragingly low ebb. Concentrators complain that tutorial is a farce. No tutor can be expected to give adequate attention to that part of his work when to do so is nothing short of suicidal. Three years are required to develop an inexperienced instructor into a good tutor; by that time one of two things has happened to him. He has tried to become a good tutor, and departed, or he has become a research man. The yearly turnover in this department is all out of proportion to the number of concentrators...
...directness which seems to be anathema to a section of the American mind.

S. hospitals for the heat treatment of syphilis and gonorrhea (TIME, April 22, et ante). For proof that her test subjects develop pure fevers and nothing else, Dr. Fishberg usually heats them until fever blisters form on their lips. As demonstration of how to offset the specific effects of fever in sick patients, Dr. Fishberg brings her test subjects back to normal by giving them a weak solution of common salt to drink and causing them...
...With total assets of $184,900,000 and 20,000 employes, J. & L. is geared, like all steel companies, for boomtime production. And with its new strip-sheet mill and the steel team of Lewis & Hackett to sell its output, Jones & Laughlin is ready for whatever boom may develop...
