...what seemed to be a move to bolster Finch's stock in the Administration and on Capitol Hill, Nixon last week declared his "complete and unqualified support" of a set of HEW proposals to combat the rising costs of health care. Warning that the nation faced a "massive crisis," he placed his presidential imprimatur on a report prepared by Finch and Dr. Roger O. Egeberg, who was named Assistant Secretary for Health and Scientific Affairs after the Knowles appointment collapsed...
...teachers themselves, many of whom are frankly terrified at the prospect of working in violence-plagued ghetto schools. Redmond's policy collapsed when Mayor Richard Daley-who in 1965 thawed the HEW-imposed freeze on federal funds to Chicago schools with a call to Lyndon Johnson-threw his support behind the teachers' union...
...blasting off immediately to rejoin Collins in the orbiting command module. If all is well, they will have a brief snack, sleep for four hours and eat a leisurely dinner.

But under weak lunar gravity (one-sixth the earth's), the total weight of each fully burdened astronaut will be only about...
...also help determine whether lunar material was ever hot enough to have melted, or whether it has been relatively cool almost from the first. Moon specimens strikingly lacking in volatile elements such as potassium and arsenic could indicate that these substances had been expelled by high temperatures?and would support the theory of a volcanic moon. Those who believe that meteors gave the moon its cratered surface might still argue, however, that the volcanism had occurred only in areas struck?and heated?by huge meteors. Studies of the crystal size and average density of sample rocks will supply other evidence...

He now presides over a state-of-emergency ruling group called the National Operations Council. Heavily dependent on the military and Malay extremists for support, the N.O.C. government today is run by men who believe that Malaysia's only hope is to find a solution to the minority "problem"-and are willing to accept a lower standard of living, or even shed the federation's non-Malay Borneo states to find it.
