Vitasoy is a milky brew that is enriched with vitamins and offers 5.9 gm. of protein in every bottle, or as much as a dish of spinach. A 6½ oz. bottle costs 310, compared with 4 4/5? for the same size bottle of Coca-Cola. Sold either chilled in warm weather or warmed in cold, Vitasoy has captured 25% of the Hong Kong soft-drink market. This year an estimated 78 million bottles, second only to Coca-Cola's 100 million, will be sold from sidewalk stands, sampans and grocery stores for a total...

...journeyed East to govern the lesser breeds as an officer in the Burmese police. The experience was decisive. His sketch Shooting an Elephant is a picture in microcosm of two imperial centuries of interracial injustice and violence. Unlike most people, he could take it but he could not dish it out. Back home on leave, he quit to become a writer. This was rougher duty than bashing natives, or the even rougher self-imposed duty of feeling guilty about the bashing. He became a sort of European native-one of the very poor. In a religious age, his eagerness...

...growing sense of disquiet in the nation over Nixon's above-the-battle posture. Moreover, the Vice President's emphasis on the old theme that the Democrats bring prosperity and the Republicans take it away may by paying off; bread and butter is still a tasty dish.

At roughly the same stage in 1948, a Roper poll showed Truman only 13 points behind the aloof...

Their rough but unique closeup of Venus stems from 17 radar probes with NASA's 210-ft. dish antenna at Goldstone, Calif., last summer. At that time Venus was only 26 million miles from the earth. Since then, the scientists have been "drawing" a map by feeding their electronic findings into a computer. The result shows three blotches of extremely rough terrain, which Goldstein presumes are mountains, moonlike craters or fields of boulders...

While their map is the clearest view yet of Venus, the Caltech researchers are not the only radar astronomers mapping that planet. Similar surveying is being carried out by Cornell scientists using the 1,000-ft. dish telescope at Arecibo, Puerto Rico, and by MIT astronomers at two sites in Massachusetts. In March, Venus will again approach Earth. By boosting their radar signal to 450,000 watts, Caltech's electronic cartographers expect to make even more detailed maps...
