Discussing treatment of the disease, Heath turned his back dramatically on his own analytic training, declared that conventional psychiatric treatment based on analytic principles is wrong for schizophrenics-by increasing the stress to which they are subject, it can make their condition worse. He said that his laboratories had extracted something from the brains of cattle which he had tried in schizophrenic patients. What the substance is, Experimenter Heath did not claim to know: he gets it from the "septal region" (part of the midbrain. in front of the hypothalamus) of bovine brains. One test: Heath & Co. shot taraxein into...
Whatever may be its "meaning," The Strange One is unquestionably something of a technical achievement. Garfein's direction is brilliant. With an acute sense of timing, he carefully constructs each scene to extract the greatest possible amount of tension from it; and although this is his first motion picture, his camera work, which makes extensive use of probing close-up shots, is that of an expert. Equally accomplished is the acting of Ben Gazzara, who in his first film makes De Paris into an intense and haunting, if not exactly lovable, figure...
...developed in Birmingham. Unlike the other processes, this one employs a solid carbon fuel instead of a reducing gas. ¶Arthur D. Little, Inc. (TIME, April 1) is developing its own process, using patents from the Esso Research & Engineering Co. It was petroleum scientists who first learned how to extract hydrogen cheaply from natural gas or petroleum, and also how to use gas pressures from below to smelt ore. This "fluidized bed" method of ore-handling is used by all direct-reduction processes except the R-N method. ¶Hydrocarbon Research. Inc. and Bethlehem Steel have developed and extensively tested...
...George Minot, William Murphy and George Whipple won the Nobel Prize for their discovery, proved on Brigham patients, that liver extract is effective against pernicious anemia. Other notable Brigham pioneering involved historic work with the artificial kidney, transplanting kidneys between identical twins, and removing both adrenal glands from certain cancer patients...
...extremely high pressure or whether Qum is one huge continuous field. If it is the field that Iranians-and some U.S. oilmen-believe it is, then it will take enormous amounts of cash and special know-how, more than the Iranians possess, to control the mighty gas pressures and extract the oil. In addition, a pipeline to get the oil to the Mediterranean coast would have to go over rugged mountains. Cost estimates for the pipeline alone run as high as half a billion dollars...
