...studied the secretive Dr. Durovic's method of injecting into horses a preparation of killed and sterilized fungi,* waiting for the horses' systems to react, then bleeding them and extracting Krebiozen from their blood serum by a highly involved process. He has duplicated the process and has a vial containing a few milligrams of an off-white powder which he believes is identical with Durovic's Krebiozen. Ivy has also worked on Krebiozen's chemistry. It is, he declares, a "tissue hormone" secreted by the RES cells. If Krebiozen is indeed a tissue hormone...
...fake. To avoid head, arm and hip fakes. Patton watches a spot roughly in the vicinity of the receiver's wishbone, on the sound theory that it will turn when the receiver himself turns and begins to cut. "Then," says Patton, "you've got to react fast. If he gets more than one step on you, you'll never catch...
...them may have been a step in nature's progression toward life. If amino acids were continually raining down from the sky, it is natural to suppose that considerable quantities of them accumulated on fairly hot parts of the young earth's surface. The heat made them react, as in Dr. Fox's lab; after they had turned into proteinlike molecules, heavy rain dissolved them and washed them into the sea. There they cooled and formed microspheres, each of which packaged together a great assortment of proteins and similar chemicals. This process may have been repeated billions...
After as little as one week, the femurs (leg bones) of young mice get rounder in cross section than normal femurs. Dr. Wunder believes that this change is an adaptation to strengthen the bone and allow it to support the abnormal weight of the high-G mouse. Chickens react in somewhat the same way: Dr. Alfred Smith of the University of California has found that when they are centrifuged, the anti-gravity muscles of their drumsticks grow to as much as seven times normal. But chickens are not so successful as mice at high-G reproduction. They try-but tend...
Linda Baud avoided looking at Jaccoud during her four hours of purple testimony. The judge, studying the nude photos that Linda said had been taken at gun point, remarked that she seemed "perfectly tranquil and at ease." Conceded Linda: "Well, I didn't react." Did she consider the defendant capable of killing a human being? After some hesitation, Linda said, "I don't think so." Lawyer Floriot wrung from Linda the admission that she had taken a new lover since André, a young Belgian who worked for the Palais des Nations, and he left implicit the suggestion...
