...Photographer Jerry Cooke, even volunteered guidance to the U.S.'s most important centers of atomic research and development. The result, despite problems of security ("Don't look at anything on that table, point your camera straight down this aisle") and radiation hazards ("You can stay in this room only 50 seconds"), are first pictures of some of the nation's newest and most significant nuclear developments. See the eight pages of color pictures with the cover story in BUSINESS, The Powerhouse...
Puffing on a pipe in his book-lined living room in Cherry Cottage, Buckinghamshire, Clement Attlee, old soldier (a major in World War I) and mild-seeming architect of Britain's 1945 Labor revolution, was in a mood to speak out; he was under the impression that the go-minute interview would not be shown on TV until after his death.

In the break before the fourth set, Pro Champion Pancho Gonzales rushed to the dressing room, gave Olmedo and Richardson some sound counsel. Eraser's return of service from the backhand court had been devastating. Gonzales advised the U.S. pair to go into tandem alignment; i.e., have the netman play on the same side of the court as the server, force Fraser to return service...
...Warren mystique reaches far and wide. At this point even book salesmen ask to see the trap-door and the room where Kittredge, Lowes and Bliss Perry once examined.

Perhaps one professor best summed it up in quoting Santayana's description of Concord: "External humility and inward pride." ir?-, iohkRCcotkle
