...leaves open to let blood out, the tensed spring pushes through, taking the polyethylene tube with it. With the end of this tube in the ventricle, the spring is withdrawn. Diagnosticians can then take samples of blood for a variety of tests, check pressure inside the ventricle, and inject radiopaque dyes for X rays to reveal abnormal or damaged arteries...
...Hitherto, the only way to halt the effects of growth hormone was to destroy the pituitary by radiation or surgery (TIME, May 16, 1955). But Drs. Martin Sonenberg and William Money described a new gimmick that has worked in animals: they treat growth hormone (from cattle) with acetic anhydride, inject the resulting acetylated compound into rats. It appears to be taken up by the animals' systems in a way that blocks the effects of their own growth hormone. This beef-gland product does not work in man, but the researchers are trying to get human growth hormone and treat...

Local teen-agers showed them how to extract the amphetamine from a Valo inhaler and inject it with a hypodermic needle. (Oldfashioned ways of getting the kick by chewing the cartridge or drinking beer in which it had been swished around were no longer popular, because Pfeiffer had added a bitter, nauseating chemical.) The venturesome eight had a ball -and spread the craze back home...
