This summer the U.S. will fairly explode with the sound of music-from jazz to Bach fugues and Verdi operas There will be no fewer than four major new festivals, and the old favorites will brim with solid programs and topnotch artists...
...death in 1965, Randolph mellowed markedly. Dropping out of the public eye, he turned to a new task; writing a five-volume biography of Sir Winston's life. "I've wasted a lot of my life," he conceded. "Now there's a satisfactory conclusion-good solid work to do."

Behind that is the thickest part of your head. That's solid. The little bullet would have just bounced off. But hitting the mastoid, it sent bone fragments shooting all over the Senator's brain. The bone fragments are the worst part, not the bullet fragments. The bullet is pretty sterile from the heat, and once the fragments are in the brain, they don't do any more damage...
These organic compounds made of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen resemble ordinary liquids. Yet their orderly molecular structure is similar to that of solid crystals such as diamonds, mica and quartz. The crystals themselves are not new, but it was only recently that scientists discovered that an electrical charge makes them light-reflecting; the higher the voltage, the greater the reflecting power. At first, this "electro-optical effect" could be shown only in the laboratory, since the crystals reacted to electricity only at certain temperatures. Now, after trying more than 100 compounds, RCA scientists have produced a crystal that responds...
...helps the percentage, but wounds the spirit. Without a superstar, Harvard relied on a balanced scoring attack and niggardly goaltending to stay in Ivy contention. In the first key game, against Pennsylvania, Nov. 4, third-string goalie Jay Breese (both John Axten and Dick Locksley were hurt) played a solid game, but the Crimson attack was impotent and the Quakers...
