...represented-as they are in classroom models-by little balls held together by rods. Says Hildebrand: "We have taken out the rods and put in dotted lines to represent axes. That way nobody will mistake them for anything physical." Middleman-and translator-between the chemists and the cinemakers is Earl Mortensen, one of Eyring's graduate students. He draws rough sketches of reactions, helps Sutherland's art director with their translation into smooth, readily understood pictures. Hildebrand's committee reviews screen tests of animated reactions (it turned down six of the first eight shown) and reworking begins...

Base Commander Rear Admiral Robert Ellis conferred with U.S. Ambassador Earl E.T. Smith, who later talked with Cuban Minister of State Gonzalo Güell. It was agreed that if Cuba could not guard the pumps, the U.S. would be allowed to do so. Last week the Cuban army abandoned the waterworks...
