...never corresponded. But on opposite sides of the Atlantic, U.S. Physicist Allan Cormack, 55, of Tufts University, and Research Engineer Godfrey Hounsfield, 60, of the British firm EMI Ltd., brooded over the same mathematical puzzle and independently reached the same solution. The puzzle: how to produce an X-ray image of tissue at any depth within a patient. The result: the CAT (for computerized axial tomography) scanner, a medical marvel now used in hospitals round the world.

OVER HALF THE medical research going on in Harvard-affiliated laboratories and hospitals may soon grind to a halt for lack of a dumping site for the low-level radioactive wastes it produces. Recently, Gov. Dixie Lee Ray shut down the University's only outlet for waste disposal. Tuesday, she met with officials of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and has now announced that she will not even consider reopening the site until...

In one spot check, state officials discovered that one-third of the trucks carrying the wastes into Washington were violating safety procedures. Ray told federal officials that until she is satisfied that safety measures will be enforced, the site will remain closed. The two agencies concerned must tighten their enforcement of the law regulating transport of radioactive wastes...
