...Beef Gang. This year, Beban is an inch taller (at 6 ft. 1 in.), 12 Ibs. heavier (at 195 Ibs.), and every bit as dangerous. Against Pitt, he scored two touchdowns on runs of 1 and 9 yds.; against Syracuse, he plunged 4 yds. for one score, set up another with a 47-yd. pass, and threw 13 yds. for a third. Against Missouri last week, he completed eleven out of 20 passes, for 204 yds. Even so, he is hardly a one-man team. Halfback Farr is a legitimate All-America candidate who has aver aged...
...Threat. Against this setting, President Johnson last week openly invited the Soviets to agree finally to end decades of mutual distrust. "Both of us possess unimaginable power," said the President. "Our responsibility to the world is heavier than that ever borne by two nations at the same time. Our common task is now this: to search for every possible area of agreement that might enlarge, no matter how slightly or how slowly, the prospects for cooperation." Solemnly he declared: "The dogmas and vocabularies of the cold war were enough for one generation. The world must not now founder...
...million years, burning hydrogen on the outer layers of such a star produces more and more helium at its core. The doomed star's interior shrinks rapidly; and the density of its core increases. As temperatures rise in the contracting core, the collected helium is converted into successively heavier elements, such as iron and gold, which crowd the lighter elements outward...
...this point, shrinkage accelerates, and the interior heats to about 5 billion degrees, suddenly converting the heavier elements back into the helium from which they were forged. The energy required for this reconversion comes from the only available source, gravitational shrinkage. When the energy demand becomes too great, the star collapses inward in a matter of seconds, producing such a titanic density that a matchbox full of the core material may weigh as much as 1,000 tons. Rebounding instantaneously from the collapse, the star explodes...
...show's producer, Lyman Clardy, a Harvard Business School graduate ('36), prescribes the records for all nine stations. He even decides the order: Mantovani on early, when the audience is biggest; heavier music for the wee-hours elite; then progressively lighter as the milkmen switch on. Hall and the other deejays only announce the selections, rip and read the news, voice the commercials. Sometimes, when a big commercial plane crash is in the news, there is a moratorium on commercials...
