Having set up the optical equivalents of Fourier transforms, Stroke beamed laser light first through the transparency of the blurred microscope photograph and then through a "dividing" filter that consisted of both the hologram and the transparency of the blurred spot of light; in mathematical terms, he had thus divided one transform by another. Projected onto film the beam produced a crude but noticeably clearer picture of the microscope. Stroke had solved his optical equation...
These occasional affairs are incidental to the really important--but delayed and indirect--impact the Center hopes to have on Harvard. Any improvement in the higher levels of historical research, such as the Warren Center is now sponsoring, will inevitably filter down to affect undergraduate studies. Handlin points out, however, that the Center is now making a more deliberate effort to improve the quality of teaching in the field of American history--improving the working conditions of junior faculty members--to make Harvard attractive to young historians...
...that finish the filter? Far from it. Strickman supporters insisted that Magnuson had misinterpreted a Columbia-sponsored test that, in fact, showed the invention to be more effective in eliminating tar and nicotine than the cellulose acetate filters used on the most widely smoked filter cigarettes. Not only are some U.S. cigarette makers continuing to express interest in the filter, but last week both Imperial Tobacco Co. of Canada Ltd. (du Maurier and Player's), and Rothmans of Pall Mall Canada Ltd., negotiated licenses to use the filter. The companies are two of the biggest in Canada, and they...
Chief Beneficiary. Before that happens, however, further research on the filter will be performed. Though Strickman's device may be more effective than the cellulose acetate variety, there are other filters already on the market -including those on such cigarettes as Marvels and Cascades-that probably rival it in reducing tar and nicotine. But most such brands have enjoyed only moderate success among smokers, many of whom feel that the filters diminish taste and make it harder to "draw." While the Strickman filter may likewise be hard on the draw, a consumer study for Strickman by Market Analyst Virginia...
...Canadian manufacturers go ahead with the filter, they will pay a penny a pack in royalties to a new charitable foundation established by Strickman and headed by Robert A. Katz, secretary and counsel of Joseph E. Seagram & Sons Inc. Besides advance payments of $200,000 apiece, royalties from the two companies could eventually amount to $5,000,000 a year. And because Strickman refuses to grant exclusive licenses, the foundation could still hope to reap far bigger returns from any-or all-of the leading U.S. cigarette companies. Even Columbia would not be left out in the cold. Though...
