...director of Pakistan-SEATO Cholera Research Laboratory at Dacca, East Pakistan, whose treatment for cholera victims (TIME, Oct. 5, 1959) has cut their death rate from 60% in 1955 to less than 1% today. Cholera, an intestinal infection spread in food and water contaminated by human waste, does not respond to drug treatment alone, kills mainly by dehydration. The key to recovery is in replacement of fluids and salts that the patient can lose at the rate of ten gallons a day through diarrhea...

By turns wildly obstreperous and slimily cozy, they work their way up and down the car, baiting here, pummeling there, lucid only in their awareness of their own power to shock and paralyze.

Is this communication or anarchy? If anarchy, one wants to know why so many of us respond because Dylan is not alone, only ahead of other pop artists and singers, all the masters of the put-on. Once upon a time we had Ruby and the Romantics, the Teddy Bears, Joey Dee and the Starlighters. Now the nouns and adjectives fight, putting each oher on, putting...
