Early this year, after twelve years and $8,000,000 in research, the company invaded the rich pharmaceutical field by marketing an antiflu drug named Symmetrel, which can be taken orally as either a pill or syrup. Only two weeks ago, the company introduced a recording tape aimed at the multimillion-dollar computer, television-broadcast and instrument markets. Called Crolyn, the patented tape uses chromium dioxide...
