Passing the tubing through the box on the left, through the insulation, through the bottle, and through the box on the right, glue everything together...
...large part of physical research now centers on mesons. Physicists believe that they are the "glue" that holds atoms together. According to the best-established theory, the nucleons (protons and neutrons that form the nuclei of atoms) have some sort of core surrounded by a cloud of rapidly moving mesons. Each shares its meson cloud with neighboring nucleons. If it were not for this sharing of mesons, the physicists believe, most atoms would fly apart, their protons repelling one another with enormous force...

When Lovellette went out, Rupp took out Spivey too ("We wanted their playing time to be even"). From then on, Sophomore Guard Frank Ramsey took over the Kentucky scoring (19 points), as Rupp emptied his bench. Final score...
