...Seattle. Greeted by Boeing President William M. Allen, he looked over the Air Force's space-glider project, Dyna-Soar, amid rumors that it was having technical difficulties and might be scrapped. McNamara also inspected the Gemini two-man space project of NASA in Houston, which seems to overlap Dyna-Soar in some respects. But he apparently had had enough fusses for one week. Pentagon officials said that McNamara will make no final decision on whether to kill Dyna-Soar or merge the two projects-either of which would deeply wound both Boeing and the Air Force -for another...
...billion authorization (only a fraction of the overall defense budget) for military hardware for 1964 was voted upon twice in the House. First, the additional funds for the RS-7O were approved, 226-179. Then an across-the-board cut of $800 million was rejected, 258-149.

That bacillus is now known to cause infections in some flu victims, but only coincidentally. In 1922 a related bacillus, found in the throats of both cats and man, was named Haemophilus parainfluenzae, but has nothing to do with diseases now known to be caused by viruses...
