...heavy police presence increased tension among Southie's resentful Irish residents, and one evening a brick was heaved through the windshield of a cruising T.P.F. squad car. When the officers tried to arrest a suspect, two dozen Southie toughs set upon them, and the police lost the man in the crowd. The next night two dozen T.P.F. officers burst into the jampacked Rabbit Inn on Dorchester Street. As many as eight patrons were reported injured. Some Southies are convinced that the T.P.F...
...such times that I would like to label the anguishing defeat a historic contest and have done with partisan furor forever. But a conversion to such intellectual detachment would mean the adoption of other, more alien, sensibilities. Judging from the nature of disinterested baseball lovers at Harvard, I suspect I would have to learn how to read only those box-scores that are over ten years old, to develop a compassion for the charred skeleton of Connie Mack Stadium, to preserve the line- ups of the Hitless Wonders and the Whiz Kids, to prepare a comparison of Satchel Paige...
...real. Sliding consumer confidence about the future is eroding already weak retail sales. Consumer Pollster Albert Sindlinger of Swarthmore, Pa., reports that during the three weeks of minisummits the public followed the news, was well aware of the Administration's position and was not heartened. Some Wall Streeters suspect that the stock mar ket's nosedive last week (see box page 40) was accelerated by some of the candid assessments of the depth of economic trouble that came out of the summit...
...launcher during a test firing. Although the Raskin-class destroyers were a vital part of the Soviet Mediterranean fleet in the mid-1960s, they have gradually been replaced by newer ships because they have no facilities for helicopters and their missiles can be used only against aircraft. Western experts suspect that the warships often suffered from serious engine defects, which caused fires at sea before...
Davison's mathematical mutant tends to support what many molecular biologists already suspect: that malignancy is apparently linked to aberrations in the RNA. The nature of the deadly change in RNA remains a puzzle-in part because scientists find the study of chemical reactions on the cellular level so enormously difficult and timeconsuming. But if suspect reactions could first be tested in a computer, using a mathematical substitute for the cell, molecular biologists could perhaps achieve in a few seconds what normally might take them months in the laboratory. Thus Davison's computerized cell may some day provide...
