Hilleman, head of the virology team at Merck Sharp & Dohme Institute for Therapeutic Research, which had been hunting for years for a mumps virus that would grow well in the lab and lose its virulence, while still retaining its power to give immunity.

The later-starting American SST will offer several advantages over the European models. It will be one-third larger, carry nearly twice as many passengers and, thanks to its heat-resistant titanium skin, fly faster. The Concorde is limited to 1,450 m.p.h. by its aluminum body, but it will be cheaper...
