...sporozoite, that is responsible for producing immunity to this stage of the parasite, and they were able to unravel part of the chemical structure of the antigen. To their surprise, it was quite simple. So simple, says Victor Nussenzweig, "that it can be very easily synthesized using plain, old-fashioned chemistry." Nonetheless, a vaccine based on the antigen still faces "a lot of pitfalls," warns Top of Walter Reed. Indeed, many scientists question whether any vaccine can prompt the immune system to react fast enough to catch sporozoites after they have been injected into the body by a mosquito: each...

When he arrived, the library was balancing its budget not only by cutting back services but by eating into its $80 million endowment. Then Gregorian began stating his case to potential givers. It was both blunt and plain: the library is necessary and therefore it should be supported. "I have never relied on the guilt or vanity of donors," explains Gregorian. "Charity you give out of pity.

...directions of the children suggest a reasonable tolerance for individuality. Mackie, 30, enjoyed track, football, baseball, almost all games in season. Cleve, 28, played soccer at Brandeis University, even professionally for a time. The third son, Frederick Carlton Lewis, was slower in developing distinctive tastes and style, and just plain slower in developing. Though he is more than two years older than Kid Sister Carol, she quickly shot past him in height and bearing. Pointing to the indisputable calibrations of an upstairs door jamb, she assigned him the nickname "Shorty...
