Manhattan's Mohawk Business Machines Corp. last week unveiled a new wire recorder, the "Tele-Magnet," which will answer the telephone when no one is home. As Mohawk's President George F. Ryan explained it, when he leaves the house (or office), the gadget's owner puts his cradle-type telephone on the machine. When the phone rings, a mechanism lifts the receiver and turns on a phonograph record. The owner's own recorded voice announces that he is out, asks the caller to leave his message at the sound of a chime. When the owner...
...through a complex square dance. Rheingold beer cans and bottles troop by a reviewing stand, while overhead drones a beer-keg blimp. Sheffield, hawking a soft drink, takes an inexpensive way out: a paper orange with a metal base is scooted across the screen by means of a concealed magnet. Sanka coffee and other advertisers have adapted the novelties (popup techniques and hinged limbs) common in children's books...
...know the earth is a large magnet; it is also covered with definite water and air currents; it probably is also radioactive in that radio waves follow definite surface patterns. Instead of the bird inheriting a flight practice from its ancestry, it probably inherits some sort of receiver mechanism which allows it to follow directions for long distances, and over large bodies of water. As a matter of fact the waves it follows may not be radio waves at all but they may be air currents or some other form of wave. All the bird needs is a receiver mechanism...
...biggest cyclotron will be radically new in design. Its magnet will be a massive hollow ring with a vacuum chamber inside it. Driven by subtly timed electrical pushes, atomic particles will circle faster & faster around the chamber until their speed comes close to the speed of light. Berkeley scientists calculate that when a proton has circled around the chamber something over a million times, it will have six billion electron volts of energy...
...this time the magnet of politics held the anti-Dev chips together. The victors elected unassuming 56-year-old John Aloysius Costello, K.C., Fine Gael frontbencher, as Eire's new Premier. To the comfort of tradition, Mr. Costello (accent on first syllable) was a devout Roman Catholic and family man (five children...
