...success after it first appeared on St. Patrick's Day, 1926, and a compensatory green was also short-lived). The thin lines were in turn eliminated. Now we are going one step further, reducing the red border by three-sixteenths of an inch. This gives the painting or photograph greater visual impact. To match it, the logotype has been made a degree bolder...
...Pentagon (TIME, April 5), network news crews began prowling side streets and ducking behind bushes. They were not trying to lie low under the barrage of criticism from Pentagon brass and their congressional supporters. Rather they were at work filming another documentary titled Under Surveillance. They managed to photograph plainclothesmen photographing antiwar demonstrators, shadowed FBI agents shadowing a young radical, interviewed 50 people about how they monitor or are monitored by others...
Exceptional Accuracy. Developed at a cost of $5,000,000, it uses conventional X-ray equipment to photograph the breast. The difference is in the developing. Instead of X-ray film, the xero-radiograph uses a selenium plate that has been specially treated to make it sensitive to X rays. Once exposed, the plate is inserted into a processor similar to an office copier, where it is "developed" electronically. The result is an exceptionally accurate Xerox "picture" of the breast, its internal tissues and any cancer that might be present...
...during the current Mars missions seems highly unlikely. Mariner 9, mapping the planet with its twin TV cameras and using ultraviolet and infra-red sensors to probe the surface and the atmosphere, will never come close enough in its far-ranging 860-mile by 10,600-mile orbit to photograph any life forms. Although the Russians have announced that their Mars 2 lander carried a Soviet pennant to the Martian surface, they have been silent about the performance of any life detectors or other instruments it might have carried...
Taking its TV eyes off the planet for a while, Mariner demonstrated its versatility-and the skill of its terrestrial controllers-by spotting and photographing the outer Martian moonlet, Deimos, from a distance of more than 5,000 miles. Deimos, a tiny chunk of debris only 5½ miles by 7 miles, seemed to be flattened in its northwest quadant, appearing to one JPL observer "like half an apple with a bite taken out of it." It also had unexplained light splotches and other surface features that may show up more clearly when JPL technicians use computers to enhance...
