...second pass, Tom Scholz 's crew still flies high
Nearly 6.5 million copies have now been sold. The success of Boston was so left field-as abrupt, decisive and cleaving as one of Leader Tom Scholz's guitar breaks-that the group came to be treated as if it had been freshly cloned for stardom. When Boston went back into the studio to make their second album, much hope was raised, but many doubts lingered. The new album, out a little more than a month, could settle the score. Don't Look Back shot to the upper regions of the charts; the album's title track...
...Russian discoveries reawakened interest in the subject. Geophysicist Christopher Scholz of Lamont-Doherty and Amos Nur at Stanford, both of whom had studied under Brace at M.I.T., independently published papers that used dilatancy to explain the Russian findings. Both reports pointed out an apparent paradox: when the cracks first open in the crustal rock, its strength increases. Temporarily, the rock resists fracturing and the quake is delayed. At the same time, seismic waves slow down because they do not travel as fast through the open spaces as they do through solid rock. Eventually ground water begins to seep into...
...with manuscripts, so with drawings. The Morgan's collection was recently fortified by a bequest from one of the greatest collectors of Italian drawings, Janos Scholz. What the library now offers is of almost unparalleled rarity, beginning with a black chalk study of devils-spiky, nervous and of an almost hallucinatory vigor-by the 15th century Artist Luca Signorelli, proceeding through works by Pontormo, Filippino Lippi, Dürer, Fragonard, Bruegel and Blake...
...photographs from a U.S. satellite showed two parallel lines, running through the northern outskirts of Tokyo, that may represent faults in the earth's crust. Then Japanese seismologists were shaken up by a U.S. colleague. Columbia University's Christopher H. Scholz (TIME, Aug. 27) suggested that the Tokyo region could expect a major earthquake within the next few years. Seismologist Tsuneji Rikitake was not convinced by Scholz's reasoning-"The art of earthquake prediction is about as accurate as Chinese astrology," he snapped-but he had to concede that the danger was there. "The energy accumulation right...
