...instrument, about the size of a TV camera, is called a radiation pyrometer. It was built under the supervision of Donald H. Menzel, Director of the Harvard College Observatory, with the collaboration of Hector Ingrao, Research Engineer and Lecturer on Astronomy, who designed the device. The pyrometer is a product of the Observatory's Infrared Laboratory, established with funds from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration...
...Iran to Sudan and Libya, from the Persian Gulf to the Mediterranean and far down the Red Sea coast. It would have a population of 40 million people (expected to reach 80 million by 1985, greater than the largest nation of Western Europe) and a total gross national product of $5.7 billion...
...Strong medicine has not cured all that ails SIAM. It must still import such simple parts as windshield wipers (paying 250% duty) because the local product is so shoddy.

Leber, a Social Democratic Deputy, brings to labor relations a new style of social partnership, always moving, as associates describe his tactics...
...captive market, property of HSA. Mr. Monro refers to what I would call free competition by saying "students from another college have sought to cut in." This is appropriate language for a Director of HSA, who is supposed to respond by improving the quality of his service or his product. It seems inappropriate for the Dean of Harvard College. I resent Mr. Burke's even attempting to use the University's rules to prevent delivery of birthday cakes by a competitor; I resent Mr. Burke's success in using those rules to prevent competition with the HSA sampler...
