...Little Riddle. At last week's Boston meeting, Tulane University's Dr. Robert G. Heath reviewed 19 years of research on another possible biochemical agent in schizophrenia-a brain protein he calls taraxein. When extracted from human plasma and injected into monkeys, it plummets the animals into a confused, schizophrenia-like condition. The same temporary effects can be induced in human volunteers subjected to taraxein injections...

...classics scholar, has a record for independence and strong-mindedness. Having decided in 1963 to try for the Tories' top job, he refused to serve in Alec Douglas-Home's Cabinet; he later placed a poor third in the 1965 party vote that installed Edward Heath as Opposition leader. He boils with emotion on the race question, particularly since his constituency has lately been invaded by large numbers of immigrant coloreds. He did not bother to inform the party leadership about his speech, but tipped off TV and newsmen. They soon found...

Shocked by the speech, Tory Leader Heath fired Powell as Minister of Defense in his shadow Cabinet. But the speech produced an outpouring of support for Powell's position. More than 2,000 tough Limehouse dockworkers walked off their jobs and marched on Parliament with signs that read BACK BRITAIN, NOT BLACK BRITAIN and DON'T KNOCK ENOCH.

Because restricted funding has limited care to mothers and children under 21, only approximately 8000 residents are potential patients. The Bromley-Heath housing project, where the center is located, is nearly all Negro, with a smattering of Cubans and Puerto Ricans. The dilapidated homes around the project belong to Negroes, Cubans, Puerto Ricans, Greeks, and some old Boston Irish-Catholics. Many of these old Irish families are unwilling to come for medical...

...Bromley-Heath project is run by the Boston Housing Authority, a federally-financed state agency. To qualify for housing a family has to have a certain low level of income, and once this income ceiling is passed, a resident of the project has to move out. Thus, the project houses a reservoir of families who are incapable of independently earning a living. Over half of the 1200 families in the project have no male head, and sometimes the three or four children in the family are fathered by different men. About 50 per cent of the families in the project...
