As Jews and Christians become closer friends, Chairman Sweazey hopes, "Christ will become better known and loved on both sides...
Majestic Feature. In the race into space, the Russians can claim bigger satellites and more powerful rockets. If the U.S. can retort that it has a big lead in scientific achievement, the man most responsible is James Van Allen, whose instruments, designed and largely constructed in his basement laboratory, brought back from space discoveries the Russians never made...
...Allen's instrument packages to measure radiation are much more complicated. Their sensing elements are Geiger tubes and scintillation counters that give brief electrical pulses when radiation particles hit them. Some of them are shielded with lead so that they will register only high-energy particles. Others are sensitive only to particles from one direction. The pulses from each instrument are fed to individual audio-frequency (audible sound) oscillators, changing the frequency of the pulses slightly. These modified audio tones are imposed on the high-frequency carrier wave sent out by the satellite's transmitter. Fed into...
...sequined gown to treat some of her plug-ugly admirers to a song. Within minutes she shoots the hat off one heckler, wraps a whipstalk around the skull of another. Then her saloonkeeper boy friend (Scott Brady) proceeds to give the sheriff an incurable case of lead poisoning. It is obviously high time for law and order to come to the town of Bottleneck.

This should give us cause to ponder, particularly about losses in lines where we have traditionally had an advantage. And firms can price themselves out of domestic markets, too. This should lead us to question whether job opportunities would not be greater if some prices were lower...
