Lives of great men are far less sublime than Longfellow thought, and their letters often prove it. If Sigmund Freud had not put his genius into psychoanalysis, even his son Ernst would have seen small reason to assemble this bundle of his father's correspondence, some of it already mined by Ernest Jones in his famed biography of the Master. Freud's letters are not brilliant, witty, or especially intimate. But their truculent honesty makes for a paradoxical and amusingly human revelation. The dedicated psychologist of sex was no sophisticate, but a square...

...Longfellow's little Hiawatha loved fireflies. So do today's kids. So, in a professional sense, do many scientists, who recognize the firefly's light as a love call-but are both baffled and fascinated by its heatless, chemically generated properties. As of last week a chemical company, Schwartz Bio-Research Inc. of Mount Vernon,N.Y.,had found a happy way of 1) letting children turn their firefly chasing to profit, 2) putting firefly tails to practical human use, and 3) offering hope that science may soon solve the longstanding puzzle of the little white-fire insect...
...present. It is longer and more pointed than its heat-sink predecessor. It can slice more deeply through the atmosphere before it slows down, giving it greater protection against defensive missiles fired from the ground. Better still, it is comparatively light: the G.E. ablating nose cone used on the "longfellow'' Atlas fired May 20 from Florida to the Indian Ocean probably played an important part in the missile's being light enough to attain its 9,000-mile range...
