...begin to radiate visible light. At 2 BEV, they radiate the more powerful ultraviolet rays. At 4 BEV, they radiate X rays, losing several million electron-volts of energy in one trip around the ring. A time will come when no amount of energy stuffed into the electrons can exceed the energy they lose. The top practical figure is about 6 BEV, which M.I.T. Professor M. Stanley Livingston, chief designer of the Cambridge accelerator, thinks will be reached within a few months...
...should be ready to accept a treaty banning above ground tests and underground tests which exceed a threshold detectable by existing systems.

The remainder of General Dynamics' twelve divisions are operating satisfactorily in the black, and some Wall Street analysts believe the company will show a respectable profit in 1962-provided additional write-offs on the jet program do not exceed the $5 to $10 million the directors now predict. But before General Dynamics can realize the promise it once seemed to show, someone will have to give it the aggressive, even arbitrary, leadership to convert it from an artificial colossus to a unified corporation...
