This week another of the companies in which Harvard has a substantial interest was brought to court by a grass-roots group of citizens who oppose its plans for a new power plant...
Open-pit mining methods, like those used to get copper in Butte, Mont., may also be tested, probably at one of the Colorado tracts. Great earth-moving machines would first peel back the sagebrush and grass over thousands of acres, next remove billions of tons of earth and rock, and finally gouge out the oil-shale beds 100 ft. to 850 ft. below the surface.

The Bowl, which had originally been little more than half full, grew emptier and emptier. By the final gun, the 70,000 blue...
