Doctors' journals carry frequent accounts of severe anemia and deaths associated with Chloromycetin. A fatality rate of 58% has been reported among newborn infants treated for pneumonia or diarrhea. Also widely reported was a judgment of $180,000 against Parke, Davis in the case of a California woman who died seven years after receiving Chloromycetin...

...chart would show that three of the most common letters in the ciphertext -O, U and A-are the most mutually exclusive. OA appears twice, OU once, and UO, UA, AO and AU not at all. But NU appears five times in the cryptogram. It happens that the most frequent English vowel diagraph is ea. Thus it is a good bet that U = a. Similarly, since the combination io is most frequent among the three dissident vowels in English, assume that it is represented in the cipher by OA. Therefore...

That there is some chafing under the strain of the demand is some indication of the role that the resister sees for himself here.

If students vote at all in House committee elections, they are probably looking for those best qualified to run dances, not to represent them on the HUC, and one of the organization's problems has been the frequent absorption of members in the affairs of the house committee they run. The alternative, which Magraw, Cooney, and Shields support, is to elect HUC members in the Housewide elections, and the HUC chairman in a college wide election--though the potential enthusiasm for student political campaigns is unproven...

...moonlighting for Ian as a sadist's apprentice. When their parlor perversities and homemade dirty photographs began to pall, there was very little left to do but to test De Sade's theory: "Murder is a hobby and a supreme pleasure." A young corpse a year, with frequent visits to the graves on the moors, kept Ian and Myra reasonably serene but leaves Williams feverishly laying out plot and explication like a row of tombstones.* He points, he nudges, he oohs and ahs in both Scottish and Lancashire accents until prison doors finally clank for keeps...
