...July 4], may have some difficulty if he plans to "joust with the authorities at Oxford's Balliol College." He had better be prepared for a group of dons whose social, economic and academic perspectives easily match the boldness of his own ideas. The doctoral program Magaziner will follow, supposedly so traditional, can be a study of almost anything, so long as he finds a supervisor who takes him seriously. He may discover that there is no shock value at all in a "sweeping cross-disciplinary plan of his own design." Unfortunately or fortunately for him, Oxford...
...first four days of their climactic mission, Astronauts Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins will follow closely the space route taken by Apollo 10 in May. Until the lunar module swoops to within 50,000 ft. of the moon, the Apollo 11 crew will face familiar challenges and risks. A minor malfunction could turn the flight into a simple earth-orbital mission or a quick loop around the moon.

To them, "sick" or unusual behavior is a sign of underlying psychosis; no matter how many external symptoms are extinguished, they fear that the deeper problem will keep rising to the surface. Reinforcement experts answer that they have yet to see such "symptom substitution" in their patients...
...become a sustained, potent challenge to the dominance of Freudian-influenced psychiatry. Azrin contends that "the promise that these techniques have shown in the mental hospital justifies their being tried out in every other area." In his more whimsical moments, Azrin likes to think that behavior therapy will eventually follow the paradigm of progress once proposed by Charles F. Kettering, inventor of the first successful electric automobile self-starter. "First they tell you you're wrong, and they can prove it," said Kettering.
