...Bach: Violin Concertos in E and A-minor; Concerto for Two Violins in D-minor; Air from Suite No. 3 in D (Henryk Szeryng and Maurice Hasson, Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, Neville Marriner conductor, Philips). Bach was the field marshal of the concerto form, regimenting the fluid lines of such Italian masters as Vivaldi and Corelli into complex string masterpieces. Szeryng, the Polish-born virtuoso, and Second Fiddle Hasson demonstrate great authority within Bach's polyphonic ranks. Their counterpoint in the double concerto is superb, as is the accompaniment led throughout by Neville Marriner. One quibble...

...competitive, in fact, that the syndicate industry is one of few in America that have not been able to form a trade association. It is also a business so fluid and freewheeling that the typical feature contract between newspaper and syndicate allows either side to cancel without cause upon giving only 30 days' notice. Thus was the New York News last May able to grab Peanuts away from the New York Post, where it had appeared for a decade. Syndicates raid each other's rosters as well. In one of the most spectacular snatches in syndicate annals...

...year supply at current consumption rates-but despite the name they are scarcely "proven" in the sense that a proposition in Euclidean geometry is; they are really only estimates based on the best available evidence. To determine proven reserves, geologists study earth strata by drilling for rock and fluid samplings. Often calculations predict probable output by comparing it with production from similar fields already in operation. Trouble is, real output seldom matches the estimates...

Somewhat to the right of the Communists, the Socialist Worker Party may garner close to 20%, while Fraga's rightist, neo-Franquista Alianza Popular is expected to poll a quarter of the vote. The most fluid situation is in the center. There the Christian Democrats, Social Democrats and a broad coalition called Centro Democrático are still discussing whether to enter the election as a bloc. Their decision partly depends on whether Suarez chooses to head such a centrist alliance in order to blunt some of Fraga's appeal. The Premier, however, can sit out the election...

Hirumi concocted a novel brew that contained cells from the lung fluid of cows and serum from fetal calves. In effect, the formula fooled the parasite into acting as if it were in a natural host. Yet trypanosomes are exasperatingly fickle creatures. After they invade humans or cattle, they show a chameleon-like ability to change their protein coatings, whose molecular structure serves as a precise signal to the host's immune system for the production of specific antibodies against the invaders. As the immune system begins mustering appropriately shaped antibodies against the trypanosomes, the parasites change their coats...
