...resembling curare. Summarizing 27 such experiments in the current New England Journal of Medicine, the researchers found that neither trained nor untrained operators using either the Schafer or Nielsen methods under field conditions could move enough air into a victim to maintain adequate oxygenation of his blood. Reason : a rescuer's hands are not free to keep the victim's chin up and ensure free air passage through his throat...
...happy ending to this tragedy? Graham found his naked Mrs. Fraser, liberated her and was rewarded by a ticket of leave, i.e., conditional pardon, and ?10 for his trouble. Happiest of all, Mrs. Fraser and her rescuer were not misled by the romantic situation into any foolish notions about marrying, but blithely went their separate ways.

In January, company will start turning out either face-lifted 1956 model or redesigned and upgraded Studebaker bearing Packard name. Completely new model based on experimental Predictor (TIME, April 23) will come...
Billion-Dollar Angel. This left only one other possibility: find a big, money-making angel outside the auto industry who wants to get into carmaking. The rescuer could take over S-P in a stock swap, use its losses to offset its own profits while pumping in enough money to keep S-P going. By 1960, auto economists figure on a 10 million car market-big enough to support even a small producer...
