...come to the aid of its pool, and 2) the speed at which a cascade travels. Nonetheless, Maine was the only New England state completely unaffected by the blackout. It was able to cut off its single, 115-kilovolt line to CANUSE in time. The Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland system escaped because its seven connections to CANUSE blew in time. Con Edison had no automatic cutoff system that protected it in the emergency...

For years, however, it has been used as a readily available substitute for blood plasma to boost the volume of fluid in patients who are going into shock from loss of blood. Now a University of Maryland surgeon has reported that, quite by chance, he discovered a remarkable new use for the drug extracted from a slime: to reduce abnormally high cholesterol levels in the blood...

In the Alcibiades itself, Moccasin was such a commanding favorite (1-10 in the early line) that the Keeneland management converted the race into a betless exhibition. Moccasin won by 15 lengths.

During the lively late show at London's newest nightclub, underdressed chorus girls grind in the naughtiest Memphis manner while patrons dine on smoked salmon and chicken à la Maryland. Called "Showboat" and located in the Strand, the club is so popular that it is booked solid on weekends through New Year's. The most extraordinary fact about it, however, is its owner: London's J. Lyons & Co., Ltd., known to Britons for years as the conservative proprietor of 170 staid, gold-and-white-fronted teahouses scattered through their country...
