...delighted. Two other stray terriers which he had killed and revived in his University of California laboratory had died again for good and all within a few hours (TIME, March 26). But after being quite dead-heart stopped, breath stopped, eyes glazed-for four minutes on Friday, April 13, Dog No. 3 had been brought back to live day after day. This apparent miracle had been worked by means of a rocking board and injections of oxygen-saturated saline solution, liver extract, canine blood, adrenalin, gum-arabic...

One dog lived a comatose life of eight hours, the other five hours. Last fortnight Dr. Cornish killed a third terrier.

Revived, the third dog clung to life day after...

Others are brilliant young lawyers who actually write the bills which the President sends to Congress as part of his program. Many of them are in their '20s and most of them are called "the hot dog boys" because they are disciples of Felix Frankfurter. Because of their intolerant zeal for drastic action, because of their youthful enthusiasm for largescale reform, they exert a potent, if nonpolitical, influence in shaping the whole character of the Roosevelt Administration. Political Washington has never seen their like before, and last week...
