...cursed and threatened with beatings. Last week, in the wake of 13 such student assaults in the past six months, teachers at Bronx Junior High School 98, where 96% of the students are either Negro or Puerto Rican, finally got fed up. Among other things, they asked Principal James Mandel and the school board to provide more protection than the single patrolman already on full-time duty there, give them the right to kick abusive students out of class. When school-board officials failed to meet the demands, 79 teachers-about 30 of them women-protested by turning in their...
Last week the Sloan-Kettering researchers, headed by Dr. Chester M. Southam, announced the answer. With the cooperation of Dr. Emanuel E. Mandel at Brooklyn's Jewish Chronic Disease Hospital, cancer cells were injected under the skin of 19 patients severely ill from non-cancer diseases. The cancer cells did not "take" in any of these non-cancer patients (though four have since died, and one of them had an unrelated, hitherto undetected cancer of the bladder). Immunity to cancer is evidently a universal phenomenon, and it is lost only in the special circumstances, still not understood, in which...

"It used to be men of 50 or 60 who would come in," says Mandel. "Now it is men of 30 or 35. It's part ego and part it's just annoying to be bald." Though show biz types like Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra are still leaders in the wiggy set, "ordinary people are going in for the same routine," says Mandel. In San Antonio, whose wig merchants...
Marks's final decision-to hold the hearing anyway-is no great surprise. What is refreshing is Author Mandel's subtly shaded exploration of questions so often answered in Boy Scout black and white: Can anyone be responsible to himself and to an organization at the same time? If a choice is forced, is it more important to help individuals or to see that society works properly...
