Regulator Substance. Last week's announcement was made by Andrew C. Ivy, M.D., Ph.D., head of the department of clinical science at the University of Illinois and a top-rank physiologist. Dr. Ivy introduced the discoverer of Krebiozen, Dr. Stevan Durovic, a hawk-faced, 45-year-old Yugoslav...
Last week one of Cheng's top agents returned to Formosa from a ao-day visit to guerrilla units along the Fukien coast. A lean-faced, hawk-eyed general officer, he has traveled in disguise to five headquarters directing 10,000 guerrillas. Gist of his report: the guerrillas' morale ranged from good to excellent; the condition of their weapons from fair to good.

Still standing, in effect, between two continents, he shook hands with a greeter. How was the weather in Europe? "The weather was very...
...Detroit Red Wings were complacently coasting along on a two-goal lead when the uprising struck last week. Starting from behind as the third period got under way, the Chicago Black Hawks began throwing everything but their skates at Rookie Terry Sawchuk. Four times, square-jawed Goalie Sawchuk coolly turned aside solo sweeps by Black Hawk attackers who were rifling the puck in toward the net at an 80-m.p.h. clip. Six times more, in wild gang melees in front of Detroit's cage, Sawchuk's quick eye and split-second reactions safely smothered the puck...
