Collecting the portraits of the 15 Men of the Year also proved complicated. In the two weeks before this issue went to press, reporters and photographers tracked their men down from San Francisco to Stockholm. Physicist Donald Glaser, who had gone to Stockholm to receive a Nobel Prize, was trailed from Stockholm to London to Geneva, where he was finally found relaxing at a ski resort. To TIME'S reporter, the few moments he finally had with Glaser added up to a "vest-pocket" interview. To the scientist, the care and thoroughness of TIME'S investigations into...
With visions of sugar plums, Canadians eagerly awaited Finance Minister Donald Fleming's appearance before Parliament to present the government's antirecession midterm budget. EXPECT FLEMING TO CUT TAXES, the Toronto Globe and Mail headlined. PREHOLIDAY BABY BUDGET BEARS GIFTS, predicted the Ottawa Citizen. One night last week Donald Fleming stood before Commons, and in his firm baritone voice spoke for 96 minutes. The news was mostly bad. The nation will end fiscal 1960 about $300 million in the red-bringing the Diefenbaker government's deficit to $1.3 billion in 3½ years. Instead of the predicted...
...Nobelman in 1958 for his demonstration that viruses can change the heredity of bacteria, who is now deep in the study of a new science that he calls "exobiology" ?an attempt to obtain and compare life on other planets with that on earth. Another is Physicist Donald Glaser, one of the U.S.'s two Nobel prizewinners in science for 1960 (Chemist Libby is the other). Glaser's award came for his development of the bubble chamber, a quantum jump in the study of atomic particles. But at age 34, Glaser is about to start his scientific life anew, switching...
...formed a lava pool 300 ft. deep in its own crater, no one in the neighborhood saw any particular reason to cheer. But at the University of California's Livermore Radiation Laboratory, the news brought joy to the hearts of a pair of bright young scientists. To Geologist Donald Rawson, 26, and Physicist Gary Higgins, 33, the new lava pool sounded like an ideal testing site for a key phase of the Atomic Energy Commission's Project Plowshare: a plan for harnessing a steam-powered turbogenerator to the tremendous heat released by underground nuclear explosions...
...masters-the pale, thin-lipped face of the Virgin in Rogier van der Weyden's Annunciation, fearful tears in the aged eyes of a Jordaens shepherd, Massys' open-mouthed Magi. Skillfully but not trickily panning across the pictures from face to face, scene to scene, Producer-Director Donald Hyatt achieves a unique sense of motion and drama. Gradually, the life of Christ (to the Sermon on the Mount) is told more effectively than it ever could be from a pulpit...
