...thorough scientific inspection. He had previously complained that American families waste money on unneeded vitamin pills and had roundly condemned children's candy cigarettes-which he thinks might lead them eventually to the real thing. Last week, though he later qualified his remarks enough to note the legal and possible long-term hazards of marijuana, Goddard's basic equation of pot and liquor still stood. Immediate outrage followed. Among the most incensed was Dr. Robert W. Baird, director of the Haven narcotics clinic in Harlem and chairman of the Suffolk County (N.Y.) narcotics-control commission. Dr. Goddard, said...
...Scala struck a magnificently old-fashioned note at Expo. In this age of realistic music-drama, far-out staging and intellectual musical analysis, La Scala's reaffirmation of the Italian faith in the power of positive vocalizing was both quaint and oddly persuasive.

...photographers, most notably Mssrs. Beattie, Hudson and Bournsell of London, Duguid of Glasgow, Bland of Johannesburg, Wyllie of California, and Buguet of Paris, practiced widely and appear to have been extensively if carelessly investigated by photographic experts who failed to detect them in fraud. It is only fair to note that these early spirit photographers seem to have operated largely by their own lights, without anything resembling scientific control, and that even confirmed believers in psychic phenomena doubted their results, suggesting an ample variety of ways that a middling to clever fraud could have hoodwinked an observer in the many...
