...than Europeans to a tea, and warned Europeans that if they did not mix with the Moslem guests, "only one conclusion could be drawn"-that fraternization was a myth. One French captain wrote a dozen letters to local rebels, promising them amnesty if they left the F.L.N. to resume normal lives in their villages.

In addition to an encouraging trend in the male death rate, Dr. Kuzma reported that in most cases the levels of cholesterol and other fat fractions circulating in the blood of heart-attack victims returned closer to normal, with no untoward feminizing effects.

Later exposed to virulent TB germs, these animals resisted disease and lived out their normal life span. Those in an untreated comparison group sickened and died. Follow-up tests by Dr. Sol Roy Rosenthal at the University of Illinois showed that BCG, wafted in 10 million times its own volume of air, "took" in 27 of 30 children and young adults, who are now believed...
