...antibiotics are marketed, there evolve a few strains of disease-causing microbes that are resistant to the most potent germ killers. Recently, thanks largely to overuse and outright abuse of favorite antibiotics-especially penicillin-it has seemed that medical scientists were fighting a losing battle (TIME, March 24, 1958 et seq.). Now British researchers report that the microbes' advance can be checked by rigorously restricting the use of common antibiotics, and imposing the strictest discipline on doctors and nurses...
...will touch down in Brazil (Feb. 23-26), Argentina (Feb. 26-29), Chile (Feb. 29-March 2) and Uruguay (March 2-3). Noticeably absent from the itinerary are Peru and Venezuela, where Communist-led mobs heckled and attacked Vice President Nixon on his tour (TIME, May 19, 1958 et seq.); the White House diplomatically pointed out that a visit to Peru would also entail a stop-off in neighboring Ecuador, where the capital of Quito is too high (9.350 ft. above sea level) for a man with the President's heart history...
...this report, U.S. and British scientists led by the U.S.'s Dr. James Fisk and Britain's Sir William Penney set down their revised findings (TIME, Jan. 12, 1959 et seq.) that known techniques of seismic detection of underground tests were completely unreliable. The U.S. had gone into the Geneva talks 14 months before on the basis of a single seismic detection of a single underground test explosion-the Rainier shot in September 1957-but had pulled up short after the Hardtack shots in Nevada in October 1958 could not be distinguished from small earthquakes. The Russian scientists...
...himself and other small stockholders, Phillips charged that Bob Young had no right to make a deal in 1955 that gave 130,000 shares, or almost half of Alleghany's voting stock in Investors Diversified, to Texas Millionaire Clint W. Murchison. He also complained that Young, Kirby, et al had illegally used Alleghany funds during the Central fight by making loans that enabled Young's good friend Murchison to buy 800,000 shares of Central stock, thus insuring a proxy victory. Hauling the defendants through one court after another, Phillips demanded that they reimburse the company...
