...released from quarantine this month, it has not yet answered any of the basic questions about the moon's origin. But if the moon is actually proved never to have had a molten interior (the maria melting could have been caused by meteor impacts), scientists would be hard put to sustain one of the theories of the moon's creation: that it was torn, cataclysmically, from a hot earth. On the other hand, a cold moon does not upset either of the two other major moon-origin theories: that it was formed from scattered cosmic debris whirling around...
...ever to involve the Mets?Chicago's crack righthander, Ferguson Jenkins, entered the ninth inning with a 3-1 lead. Minutes later he stalked off the field in disgust, a 4-3 loser. The following night Tom Seaver, 24, the husky, hard-throwing ace of the Met pitching staff, put on the most dazzling one-man show in Met history. He faced just 28 batters to achieve a 4-0 victory. Only a line single by Rookie Jim Quails in the ninth inning spoiled his bid for what would have been the eleventh perfect game since professional baseball began...

With a wheelbase of 103 in., the six-cylinder Maverick is priced at $1,995. An even smaller car, named the Phoenix, is on Ford's drawing boards and could be introduced late next year...
...four brothers look, think, talk and act alike. As they put it: "We are one brain in four heads." They share the same headquarters office in the grimy industrial town of Lille-and the same black car. When the eldest brother, Bernard, took over his family's M. J. Willot Co. in Lille in 1954, it employed 200 people who produced a $3,000,000-a-year volume of bandages and baby diapers. Bernard was soon able to squeeze out 20% profits on those sales, and he used the added income to expand...
