...severe freezing, hypothesizes Dr. Bellows, "causes disruption of the infected cells. These disrupted cells release a high concentration of interferon," a natural virus fighter. Most of the herpesvirus is killed outright by the cold, and the interferon is able to stop the spread of whatever remains, eventually allowing it all to be killed. "The response to cryotherapy is so uniformly satisfactory," says Dr. Bellows, "that in unresponsive cases the physician should question the diagnosis and re-examine the patient...

Moreover, Dodd declared, if the Senate really believed one of its members guilty of larceny, it should expel him outright rather than censure him. It was a shrewd challenge. At week's end the Senate agreed to vote separately on the billing and campaign-fund counts...
