The strontium 90 rise in the next 70 years will vary in each country. For milk-drinking Americans, it will average an estimated .16 rem (or roughly the present dosage from X rays).

Delving no deeper than a cat lapping milk from a saucer, Disney has churned out yet another strong-legged, soft-headed pioneer epic, in which each character, action and motive is painted in shrieking monotone. Taken from the 1953 novel by Pulitzer Prizewinning Author Conrad Richter, the story revolves sluggishly around the efforts of a boy (James MacArthur) to resist being taken back to his white parents after having grown up as the adopted son of a Delaware Indian chief.
