...young women the ectopy disappeared. At the start of the study, 123 women had fibrous ridges growing around their cervical walls; this "hood" later receded in 52% and vanished in 28%. But the good news has a bad side. If DES daughters lose their abnormal cervical "markers" and neglect checkups, doctors may not monitor them for another problem linked to the hormone: a high risk of pregnancies ending in premature birth...
...virtually every conflict in Dallas is that human oil slick, J.R.: seducer of sisters-in-law, bankrupter of bank executives, agent of miscarriages, avenging devil of politicians, mortgager of his parents' home, suavely sadistic husband-and secretly loving father.

It introduces weekly columns on small business, regional trends, real estate, marketing and science and technology, subjects the paper tended to neglect in the past. The lower left-hand corner is reserved for short, sprightly yarns; one last week cheekily examined the rich man's version of the box radios so popular with street people. The new page even has a rather tepid corporate gossip column called "Shop Talk...
...physician cannot heal himself. Helplessly he witnesses the indiscriminate dispensing of sleeping pills in order to give the house staff an easier night, the neglect of infections, the imperious commands made by the vertical to the horizontal. His exhausted wish is for "a rule that every doctor must spend one week a year in a hospital bed. That would change things in a hurry...
