...decontamination systems, showers for workers after experiments, and sealed cabinets accessible only through attached gloves. Some "worst case" experiments, involving animal tumor viruses, will begin in the trailer this summer. NIH is also converting some of the abandoned germ-warfare labs at Maryland's Fort Detrick into similar super-containment facilities. In addition to the labs, the guidelines require the use of the self-destructing, escape-proof microbes for certain higher-risk experiments...

Chaffee, the retired tennis, squash and soccer coach at Williams College (Mass.), is one of the most remarkable of the 1,200 or so Super-Seniors-players who are at least 55 years old and still compete in tournament tennis.

He has always been at his best when a script presents large technical challenges: the tight spaces of Birdman of Alcatraz, the wild railroad chase in The Train, the assassination attempt at a political convention in The Manchurian Candidate, to name the best of them all. Here he has more and perhaps richer elements than ever to play...
