Frank D. Drake, associate director of the Center for Radiophysics and Space Research at Cornell, present at Harvard yesterday new information on pulsars-unusual stars which derive their name from their peculiar redid pulsating...
...Cambridge important because the city represents the very rationality that is choking us. "What's happening on stage must always be alive. That's why we don't have rehearsals anymore. The show is a dramatic moment, whose components are actors and an audience involved in time and space by what happens on stage. When an improvisation goes badly, the audience feels as badly as we do.

Even as the Soviet troika circled the earth, the U.S. was busily preparing a space spectacular of its own.

It will demand every bit as much daring from its all-Navy crew...
Conrad's Parking Lot. Leaving Gemini Veteran Richard F.

Essentially, it is the story of American art's coming...
