Speaking before Radcliffe seniors and their families. Woodworth drew together concepts from the works of Alfred North Whitehead, from the Bible, and from a biography of Coleridge by John Livingston Lowes. Perhaps the most important of these notions was that of "the habitual vision of greatness," which Woodworth took from Whitehead...
...they radiate X rays, losing several million electron-volts of energy in one trip around the ring. A time will come when no amount of energy stuffed into the electrons can exceed the energy they lose. The top practical figure is about 6 BEV, which M.I.T. Professor M. Stanley Livingston, chief designer of the Cambridge accelerator, thinks will be reached within a few months...
Probing the Unknown. Dr. Livingston, who collaborated as a graduate student with Nobel Prizewinner Ernest Lawrence to invent the first cyclotron, in 1930, points out that while the Cambridge electron accelerator does not approach the energy of the 30-BEV proton accelerator at Brookhaven, it has important special talents. Since its electron projectiles are very small compared with protons, they can be used to explore the unknown inner structure of both protons and neutrons. They generate beams of enormously powerful 6-BEV X rays, and these in turn can be used to explore matter. The same big X rays, which...
...used the glaring illumination to strafe and bomb the Viet Cong positions outside the village. By morning, truckloads of troops were converging on Due Hoa to follow up the retreating guerrillas. Not only South Vietnamese combat soldiers were being employed. U.S. Specialist Four James T. Davis, 25, of Livingston, Tenn., was riding a three-quarter-ton Signal Corps truck equipped with a location finder to spot a clandestine Red radio transmitter that has been broadcasting messages to Communist North Viet Nam. On Communal Road No. 10, a little before noon, the Signal Corps truck was blown up by an electrically...
...handsomely. At Tafo, natives wanted to make Barnett Chessin. 23. a tribal subchief in gratitude for his contributions to town life. In Dodowa, one of the few school districts with no faculty apartments, the local chief volunteered to share his own modern home to accommodate Peace Corps Teacher Thomas Livingston. Ghanaian students, used to the magisterial ways of British-trained masters, have responded well to Peace Corps teaching. Says Martin Larbi of Accra's La Bone Secondary School: "They're better than our other foreign teachers." Enthuses Nadio Baako. a student in Kumasi: "It's like...
