...Jovian atmosphere may consist largely of red dye material. Because of white clouds of frozen ammonia crystals at the outer fringes of the atmosphere, the red atmosphere is largely invisible from above. But below the red spot, some scientists believe, there might be a giant meteor crater in the solid hydrogen surface of the planet. This crater, the NASA researchers suggest, may form a great vortex in the atmosphere that swirls the red-hued dye up through the cloud cover, thus creating Jupiter's distinctive red spot...
...York and Chicago (TIME, Jan. 19). Last week the San Francisco Symphony announced that it had bagged Ozawa for itself, starting in the fall of 1970. Retiring Viennese Conductor Josef Krips, 65, who in the past five years has rebuilt San Francisco into one of the nation's solid second-rank ensembles, was largely responsible for the choice of his successor. "Among the younger generation," said Krips, "Ozawa is the finest...
Donald Soule's set, but for brown woodwork a shade too shiny, is an eminently presentable post-Victorian product, markedly more solid than the usual Loeb interior. Alan P. Symond's lighting still casts a few unintended shadows, but should be rebalanced by tonight, at which time also the all-important gaslight might be better coordinated with Mrs. Manningham's references to it. Among the citations in the program is one to an outfit named "Bwana Bus and Lighting" whom we are presumably to thank for some incidental virtue of this pleasant, unmemorable show...
Despite its tendency toward political misadventure, the Pearson government has compiled a surprisingly solid legislative record. It has built up a progressive social security system, and has begun to introduce the principle of the guaranteed annual income. It successfully managed the difficult task of unifying Canada's Army, Navy and Air Force into a single force designed largely for United Nations peace-keeping missions. Most recently it effectively abolished capital punishment in Canada...
...when Stark first solicited professors with solid reputations, he found that "I might as well have asked somebody to write a book saying Communism is good for you." Within a year, a few teachers had succumbed to his arguments, and he now has some 60 authors and editors under contract. Half of them are full professors, 14 head departments in their schools, eleven also edit scholarly journals. Among them are Dostoevsky Scholar Edward Wasiolek, head of the University of Chicago's comparative-literature program, and Milton Specialist John T. Shawcross of the University of Wisconsin...
