...another third into a TV campaign showing a 1960 film with Eisenhower extolling Lodge; the last is spent for miscellaneous items-and with a miscellaneous organization, there are plenty of these. Money is so scarce that when the girls forget to stuff an envelope, they carefully pry it open, insert the literature quickly, sit on the envelope to make it stick again. Yet the whole thing is done in a blithe-spirit fashion. Among Grindle's instructions to volunteer helpers: "It is a happy campaign. Smile and be pleasant. We think that's terribly important-that...
...different coils do different jobs. When the end of a metal tube is inserted into the doughnut-shaped coil, it can be shrunk tightly around any insert such as a plug or a threaded fitting. To expand a metal tube, a cylindrical coil is pushed inside it. A flick of the switch, and the tube expands to bind itself solidly to whatever surrounds it. To stamp a flat piece of metal with a pattern, a trademark of elaborate lettering, the metal is placed between a flat coil and a die. When the coil is activated, the opposing magnetic field...
Breaking Down Gauguin.

Next year the editors got a Carnegie grant of $12,500 to finance "The College Teacher." When 249 schools bought that one, they returned the money unused. Forming a nonprofit corporation, they went on in 1960 with "The Alumnus"-reaching 2,858,000 readers in the process. This year's insert on academic freedom, written mainly by Gwaltney, is a balanced study of professorial rights and duties that asks alumni for "understanding...
