Usually, the University offers at least one honorary LL.D. In 1953, for instance, both John W. Davis and Dean Griswold of the Law School received degrees. This year, chances would seem to be that both Felix Frankfurter and Earl Warren may receive degrees. Since Frankfurter is expected in Cambridge during Commencement Week, he would seem to be a strong choice...

Rising Ratio. The ideal VTOL may come into being through the continuous improvement of jet engines. Research Engineer Earl R. Hinz of Ryan Aeronautical Co. points out that when the static thrust of an airplane's engines exceeds the airplane's weight, a vertical take-off is possible-at least in theory. Apparently no operational jet plane has such thrust at present, but the ratio of thrust to weight-even with the low-power figures still published by the security-morbid U.S. Department of Defense-is climbing rapidly. For the F-86 Sabre jet the ratio is four...

Britain's aristocratic Earl of Scarbrough and one of Red China's Vice Premiers, Ulanfu, who shared a howdah, smiled wanly at the cheering crowds as their huge beast heaved and rolled along the line of march. Behind them an elephantload of Indian maharajas grinned as happily as college boys joy riding...
