...link Marcantonio with James B. Conant . . . It strikes, me frankly, as unusually presumptious for an organization to come in here and protest the nomination of this outstanding American. I think he is far above his critics . . . I value the man so highly that I resent inferences that are being passed out about Mr. Conant. I think he is tops in this country . . .

But for the most part, the faculty reports, the Gropius Hudmnt battle was more a cold war than anything else, creating at times...
...thing the space doctors are sure of: human bodies and nervous systems resent fluctuations of gravity. Moderate increases are not too bad if they do not last long. The crews of Von Braun's shuttle rockets would have to withstand nine "Gs" (nine times normal gravity) for brief periods as they left the earth. They could survive by lying on their backs on contour couches, say the space doctors, but they would not enjoy...
