...policy at the Educational school library now allows 20-year-old bound periodicals to circulate freely. This differs from policy at Lamont and Hilles, where periodicals cannot be checked...
...then came the greatest scientific surprise of the trip. The tremors continued far beyond expectations. "It is as though someone struck a bell in the belfry of a church and it kept reverberating for 30 minutes," explained Maurice W. Ewing, director of Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory. Later scientists said that reverberations had lasted as long as 55 minutes. "We've never seen anything like it on earth," said M.I.T. Geophysicist Frank Press. "We're not sure what it means, but probably it will represent a major discovery completely unanticipated about the moon." It could...

...Collier's is a respected encyclopedia, recommended by authorities and used by many schools-among them Harvard. The las time you cribbed from an encyclopedia in Lamont for a last minute paper, Collier's may have been your baby...
Small Aftershocks. "The chances are small, but not zero," says Seismologist Lynn Sykes of Columbia's Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory. He and other scientists think that a less dangerous method of earthquake control might be to pump liquid into a fault region. Such fluids would relieve stresses by acting, in part, as underground lubricants. Yet this method also poses dangers. In the Denver area, for example, recent shocks were apparently triggered by the disposal of chemical wastes in deep underground wells...
