When any conductor, either a wire or an ionized gas. is pushed across a magnetic field, two things happen: 1) an electric current flows through the conductor and 2) the conductor meets resistance and therefore slows down. Physicist Neuringer's proposal is to create a strong magnetic field on the front surface of the re-entry body. When ionized air flows across it, the braking action of the magnetism will make it pile up in a deeper, slower moving layer that will not transfer as much heat to the solid surface...
...that "he can cause a flowering within her." By way of re-enlisting readers who might have grown discouraged by this sort of thing, the new Digest piece (condensed from McCall's) quotes the "official" line: "The wife should have an orgasm.

...words, half of the present readers and editors of the CRIMSON wouldn't make it in that kind of competition. Furthermore, in 1975 they won't make it to Yale or Princeton or M.I.T. or Amherst or Williams or similar colleges.

Montreal viewers were delighted, bombarded the station with scores of phone calls. Sample: "I've been watching that live commercial for months just waiting for something like that to happen. It was a rare moment." Perhaps too rare for Bergeron, who was worried about his sponsor. Said he: "I only hope the Coca-Cola people find it as funny...
