Though the campaign's financial worries were far from over, Sammy Davis Jr. came through with a $17,800 check, Jack Lemmon promised half his salary from his next film (he has received as much as $1,000,000 for a movie), and Sidney Poitier, who donned work clothes last week to join a cleanup detail, contributed liberally...
News Releases & Handbills. The Government's massive and well-organized evidence was presented to the jury by Assistant U.S. Attorney John Wall, 32, a former paratrooper and Army intelligence officer. In addition to snowing several film clips, Wall read militant handbills and news releases issued by the defendants, bearing such titles as "Civil Disobedience Against the War" and "A Call to Resist Illegitimate Authority."

...cells. From then on, all protein synthesis depended on pre-existing messengers. He detected new protein molecules by exposing the cells to radioactive amino acids, which are incorporated into any protein the cell synthesizes. Kafatos has made thin sections of the cell and covered them with a thin photographic film. The radioactivity behaves like light and activated the film. His process is called autoradiography. He could then develop the film, count the activated silver grains over the two regions of the cell, and know how much of each protein had been synthesized. He found that a few hours after actinomycin...
