Trying to understand the universe around them, some scientists have sought to unlock the secrets of the atoms and molecules that quite literally make up just about everything under the sun -and beyond it as well. Others have sought this understanding by peering into the remotest reaches of space. Both groups of explorers were recognized last week when the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced the 1974 Nobel Prizes for Chemistry and Physics. It gave the chemistry award to Professor Paul J. Flory, 64, of Stanford University, for his studies of macromole-cules, or large molecules. The physics prize...
...seems to invoke depression for the most part. Drunken men wander up and down the boardwalk in front of the single row of houses, singing, wailing and tapping on window panes in search of companionship. They are simply ignored.

They confess a change of heart while still supporting the administration's policies. They well know what is meant when it is said, "as the sun sets on your bloated master's careers, go and seek your graves in history by the torch of the national liberation struggles...
