...healthy inside look, both Cole and Stewart have contrived necklines that plunge full and wide. Rudi Gernreich, whose topless suit provided the industry with welcome publicity but negligible sales, has engineered the "bib" suit, which comes loosely up over the middle of the bosom, but leaves the outer reaches marginally exposed, offering a new perspective to the girl watcher who prefers to sneak a sidelong glance rather than risk a head-on stare...
Inside a Bowl. Because it would slope upward in a graduated bank from its inner edge to its raised outer edge-much like the inside of a shallow bowl -the circular runway would provide great directional stability to a plane landing at high speed. It would prevent the plane from veering out of control to the right or left. Pulled outward by centrifugal force and downward by gravity, a fast-rolling plane would be confined to a circular path high against the outer, steeply sloping part of the runway. As its speed decreased, centrifugal force would lessen, and gravity would...
...nation has economic problems, they are the problems of high employment, high growth and high hopes. As the U.S. enters what shapes up as the sixth straight year of expansion, its economic strategists confess rather cheerily that they have just about reached the outer limits of economic knowledge.

The job of maintaining expansion without inflation will require not only their present skills but new ones as well. Perhaps the U.S. needs another, more modern Keynes...
...after stoning the assistant headmaster with marbles, the boys locked him up overnight in the dining hall with the warden and a teacher. When the high sheriff was appealed to the next day, he refused help because the boys had firearms and were getting ready to defend the Outer Gate by flinging flagstones down on the police. Harvard and Princeton experienced numerous such episodes. In 1788 the situation at Harvard was so bad that Professor Eliphalet Pearson kept what he called a Journal of Disorders. "In the hall at breakfast this morning," he recorded on Dec. 9, "bisket, tea cups...
Downstate's Dr. Martin Kaplitt, 26, and Dr. Sol Sobel, 40, offered an operation that was both simpler and quicker than standard techniques. Along with Kings County Hospital's Dr. Philip Sawyer, they clamped off the diseased section at either end, then injected carbon dioxide between the outer and inner layers of the artery. With the two layers thus separated, it was relatively easy to make a small incision and snip off the ends of the diseased inner layers, then pull them out. After the incisions were sutured and the clamps removed, the blood immediately began flowing through...
