Angry Rival. "Pete" Williams' margin was narrow, but it left no doubt that Meyner is now in command of the Jersey Democrats. At the beginning of the campaign, Williams, a personable, articulate Oberlin and Columbia law graduate who was twice elected to Congress from normally Republican Union County, was a vote-drawing favorite. Then dissident Democrats in boss-ridden Hudson County broke with Meyner over patronage. Against Williams they put up John J. Grogan, 44, mayor of Hoboken and president of the Shipbuilders Union. Williams' hopes were dimmed further when New Jersey's un-merged A.F.L...

...this morning your precious exciting letter arrived. Every line warms me and makes me ache and miss you each tiny moment. It's beautiful-yet terrible . . . I'm your woman and I need you, my man!

Star of Suicides. Dr. Segrè has no doubt about what happened. The antiproton, he says, hit an ordinary, positively charged proton and reacted with it in such a way that the collision produced one ordinary neutron and one antineutron. These two particles differ only in their magnetic properties. Neither has any electric charge, and therefore they left no bubble trails. The neutron shot out of the picture undetected, but the antineutron hit a carbon atom in the propane and committed double suicide with one of its protons or neutrons. The atom disintegrated, leaving a star of bubble trails made...
Nevertheless, the Census Bureau has already made changes that raise a doubt about this continuity. Many an economist has estimated that the current recession is worse than 1949-50 or 1953-54 because the unemployed percentages appear bigger. But the figures are not completely comparable, because both the definition and the sample have changed. Until last year, the census takers counted all workers laid off for 30 days or less as employed. Last year the rules were changed to count such workers as unemployed. In this fashion, the statisticians arbitrarily added another 250,000 to the unemployment totals. While...
