Several weeks ago a Bank of America officer moved into the village, quietly began listing everyone entitled to stock- from 18-month-old Orietta Perasso to 90-year-old Giovanni Ferretto. Unaccustomed to stocks and banks, or for that matter to generous, impulsive gestures from strangers, the villagers were suspicious. But last week all save a few skeptics donned feast-day clothes to sign their names-or "X"-to their Bank of America stock certificates. Few had decided what to do with their money.

Its scientists started with the knowledge that when carbon-rich gases are put in a lab furnace and decomposed by high heat, they sometimes deposit carbon in the form of a peculiarly dense graphite. At first this stuff was only a laboratory curiosity, and for a long time no one made it in quantity or thoroughly tested its properties. But after considerable experimentation, Raytheon's furnaces yielded a hard, impermeable, layered material that looks like black porcelain. Called Pyrographite...
