...MATTER WHAT you do, pretty girls will always be more enticing than dressed-up Hasty Puddings. Curtis E. Von Kann, director of this year's Law School Show, has put together a fast-paced farce out of a solid book and a huge but wonderful cast. The Spider People, a saga of law students in "the seamless web" of the law, is intelligible to people who know nothing about law, but stays very close to home--at Harvard Law School...

...helix" that paved the way for the new science of molecular biology and won them the Nobel Prize. For all the work that has been done in the field since Watson and Crick made their pioneering studies in 1953, no one had been able to display any hard and fast visual evidence to confirm the spiral structure of DNA.

The great rises of the past two years have fueled inflation, which the board is now trying earnestly to stop.

Premium Fares. When the Concorde goes into service in 1973 or earlier, its expected top cruising speed will be 1,450 m.p.h., and the plane will leap the Atlantic in three and a half hours, about twice as fast as a 707 or DC-8. Many passengers will probably be eager to hop aboard just to get there faster. But lines flying Concordes will have to charge a premium, perhaps 20% above regular jet fares, or make sure that each plane is more than 60% full. By contrast, existing jets can break even at 50% of capacity...
