...Hairston turned to the court of public opinion. He began by enlisting a new "old-boy network" of black journalists. As a result, a black reporter on the Dallas Times Herald went to the city editor, who assigned the story to Susan Milstein, then on the paper's courthouse beat. At first she was leery: "People call all the time saying, 'My brother is in jail and it's a case of mistaken identity.' " But she quickly became intrigued: "I could not understand why all of these middle-aged white engineers were so upset. They were...
...Milstein's front-page article led to a rush of other print and TV stories. Coverage by the New York Times, PEOPLE, the Phil Donahue show, ABC and the Cable News Network soon followed. The snowballing scrutiny got a further push last month when Geter's roommate Williams, who had no previous criminal record, was acquitted of the charge against him. But it was a 60 Minutes broadcast in early December that was "the tipping factor," says Hairston, who had written to one of the show's producers. In addition to reviewing the facts, CBS reporters aired...
...technique builds on pioneering work with mice done five years ago by César Milstein and Georges Köhler in Britain. By injecting foreign substances into the animals, they stimulated the production of antibodies against the invaders. Then they removed the animals' spleens, a major site for antibody production, and mixed the organ's antibody-producing cells with cancer cells.

Andy Sellon was a riot as the pedantic Humpty-Dumpty. Simon Goldhill and Caryl Yanow as the Gryphon and the Mock Turtle were also amusing. Julie Zickefoose and Clare McGorrigan as the White and Red Queens supplied some spirited moments and the chorus was delightful, especially in the Lobster Quadrille dance. Cindy Cardon as the vamping, tap-dancing mutton charmed even those who had given up hope after two and a half hours...
...Hurok Concerts, is regarded as a sound businessman. His abilities as a starmaker in the Hurok tradition are less well known. Despite the recent depletion of its talent roster, Hurok Concerts still handles a respectable array of artists, including Van Cliburn, Sviatoslav Richter, Henryk Szeryng, Nathan Milstein, Janet Baker, Nicolai Gedda and Artur Rubinstein. One of the joys of the new Shaw-Hurok liaison, said Shaw last week, is that now Guitarist Bream and Mezzo Baker can give joint recitals in the U.S., as they have in England. One of the things wrong with the business-most music managers being...
