...week, NASA Administrator Thomas Paine had publicly voiced the hope "that the juxtaposition of two lunar missions in such a close time frame points out the desirability of close cooperation in space between the Soviet Union and the United States." During his recent tour of Russia, Apollo 8 Astronaut Frank Borman called for wider exchanges of scientific information and the joint tracking of satellites. He advocated a halt to "unnecessary duplication" in planetary exploration and suggested that when orbiting laboratories are lofted into space, they be manned with scientists from a number of different countries.

Frank Cassell, professor of industrial relations at Northwestern's Graduate School of Business, detects a widespread malaise that affects even these high-priced junior executives. "Young Northwestern alumni are wondering about the meaning of their lives in business," he says. Meanwhile, many students have been repelled by business, partly as a reaction...
...foes, in fact, promise either to pass a tougher law or do nothing-and thus allow the regulatory agencies to impose almost any rules they please. Understandably, N.A.B. officials had been working on their blackout proposal for some time, and their announcement last week came soon after Utah Democrat Frank Moss, head of the Senate Consumer Subcommittee, sent telegrams advising them that they had better "do something" about smoking...
