...told members of two Senate committees that the Soviet Union has gone ahead to install hundreds of giant S59 intercontinental ballistic missiles, each of which can deliver up to 25-megaton hydrogen warheads. (The U.S. Minuteman ICBM carries a relatively modest one-megaton punch.) The SS-9, said Laird, is far too potent a weapon for the mere destruction of cities: since the Soviets must have it in their inventory for the purpose of knocking out a tougher target, the U.S. ICBMs in their silos...

What odd values! I think possession of pot should be no crime at all, and 15 days would seem about right for a weak punch or two thrown in anger. But interfering with the freedom to teach and learn is a very serious offense and two years (with some remission, I trust, when he shows he understands) seem particularly disproportionate had he been convicted of that offense.

...growing so fast that other companies are rushing to grab a share. Lever Brothers, the U.S. arm of Unilever, is test-marketing its enzyme presoak, called Amaze. In addition, detergents containing enzyme additives have been introduced by the three biggest soap companies-Gain and Tide XK by Procter & Gamble, Punch by Colgate and Drive by Lever Brothers. Regular Tide, which has been the No. 1 detergent since its introduction in 1947, has been replaced entirely by Tide XK. Eventually, the enzyme-spiked detergents may push almost all regular detergents off the supermarket shelves, even though the enzymes take so much...
