...Brew. After two years of experimentation, Milwaukee's Blatz Brewing Co. next week will start test-marketing Tempo, a bland new brew aimed at the potential consumers (54% of all U.S. adults) who never touch beer. Tempo is flavored with an extract of fresh hops, which are milder than the dried hops ordinarily used by brewers to give beer its traditional tang. With fresh hops the new brew is lighter and brighter in color than standard Blatz, but has the same alcoholic content (4.9% by volume), and will sell, in bottles and cans, for the same price...
Perhaps the most important U.S. contribution at Geneva was the declassification, some of it even after the conference opened, of a parade of precise details of the atomic process, e.g., how to extract uranium concentrates from raw uranium ore. With this new knowledge, other nations could save years of duplicating research, speed up their atomic programs with less cost and effort. For the small, underdeveloped nations, in particular, the rich buffet of know-how was a memorable feast. Waving a thick sheaf of scholarly reports, one Israeli scientist declared happily: "This'll keep me busy for years...
...airy abstractions, the tower's inventor believes, would be a great and welcome change from the traditional bronze men on horseback, men in capes, and men thinking, chin in hand.

He got a composer friend to extract a musical tone from each plaque on his tower (by banging or rubbing each one separately) and record the sounds together on tape. Then he persuaded an engineer to build an electronic "brain" for the tower which "plays" the tones according to the effects of light, heat, humidity and surrounding...
...Most Intimate (Charlie Shavers, trumpet, and strings; Bethlehem). A skillful jazzman, whose muted flights were jewels of chamber jazz in the late '305, now playing wide-open. Backed by Sy Oliver's strings, Shavers' brazen tones soar, tumble and melt as they extract the moods of tunes by Harold Arlen and Johnny Green...
...worse than a beast when aroused. Having characterized the testimony as' "the most filthy [evidence] I have ever heard," Gib-lin last week denounced Dolly as a "scheming, conniving, lying girl," whose charges were a "favorite weapon of gold diggers." Ruled he: "I am not going to extract money from the defendant's pockets just because he is a wealthy man . . . To me, [Dolly] and her father are despicable people . . . motivated ... by greed for money." Astor's lawyer, W. F. Parker, had more than agreed during the hearing, crying: "Your Honor, the truth...
