...Little Acre was written in six weeks in Maine, geographically and temperamentally as far from his Georgia characters as he could have gotten. Of the book he says, "It's just a story; anybody can interpret it any way they want to, but I was just trying to tell a story. I studied economics and sociology, but I don't put them into my stories." Caldwell makes no claims to sophistication, except if by sophistication, you mean being more aware of the situation around you, having an expanded knowledge of people. We use a plain table service...
...fated to do his best work. In comedy he has shown what he can do wonderfully well-the little men with the monstrous obsessions, the secret lives of the wicked Walter Mittys. In Kwai and in The Prisoner he suggests that, as well as any living actor, he can interpret a specifically modern sort of hero-the man who is not meant to conquer the world but to battle within himself...

He added sternly that the News editor who passed the piece had been "brought to book." The editor...
...Cosmic ray intensity, the third space factor observed by the Explorer, is harder to interpret. Apparently the average increase above the intensity at the surface of the earth-twelve times-is about what was expected. More interesting are hints that cosmic rays in space may fluctuate considerably with time, and vary from place to place. Dr. James Van Allen of the University of Iowa says that a radio station in Tokyo that was picking up the satellite's signals last week noted a sudden increase in cosmic rays to as much as five times above normal. If this observation...
