...insist that their only contracts are with papers that no longer exist. As long as they lack a new contract with the World Journal Tribune, they say, they will not work. That argument is already being contested in the courts, but legal action was suspended while Guild picket lines kept the Pressmen from working, contract or no. Once the picket lines disappear, the publishers may well find themselves back in court-and another such delay is just about the last thing they want...
...Yugoslav Catholics in spiritual matters. Casaroli's critics also point out that his judgment is not infallible. Long after it was evident that the Polish government would not let Pope Paul enter the country for the ceremonies marking the 1,000th anniversary of its conversion to Christianity, Casaroli kept insisting that the trip could still be arranged...
Keeping an orbiting satellite in the proper attitude is no mean trick. But there are times when antennas and cameras have to be kept pointing continually at the earth if they are to work effectively, and scientists have devised some complex systems to help them maintain position. Gyroscopes, inertial devices, gas jets and small rocket engines, working in conjunction with thousands of electrical and mechanical components, have all been tested. In an effort to reduce the weight and complexity of such systems, General Electric space specialists have taken their inspiration from the moon-a natural satellite that manages to keep...
Earlier models of this Gravity Gradient system used on four other satellites were successful at lower altitudes. But scientists questioned whether far out, where the earth's gravity is weak, the damping devices which kept the satellite from swinging like a pendulum in lower orbits would still be effective. G.E. experts, however, were convinced that their basic system was reliable...
...hermetic in his life as he is in his art, Cornell has kept himself and his work so aloof from the world for so long that he has become more a subject for intellectual quarterlies than for public display. But a lately revived interest in surrealism and the reappearance of nonabstract art are drawing attention back to him. Lawrence Alloway, former curator of New York's Guggenheim Museum, originally picked him as one of four artists to represent the U.S. at this year's Venice Biennale. California's forward-looking Pasadena Art Museum plans a survey...
