...Memoriam Sir: The enormous swell of sympathy and despair that has risen throughout this nation and the world is testimony to these overwhelming aspects of John F. Kennedy -he had within him a sense of greatness; he bestowed upon the presidency a literate, a sensitive and even a poetic value. These values were considered by most people to evidence brilliance and genius. It is this that transcends politics and nationality-the tragedy of his untouched capacities...
...glands circulates among the cells and comes in contact with the long, ropelike molecules of the DNA in the chromosomes. The hormone affects only those parts of the DNA molecule that contain a few items of chemical instructions needed for metamorphosis. The parts become suddenly active; they swell up, forming visible puffs which show that the hormone has told them to do their stuff. Dutifully they release their information by forming "messenger RNA" (ribonucleic acid) that diffuses into the body of the cell and manufactures the protein enzymes that bring about metamorphosis. Then the puffs disappear, and the chromosomes wait...
...Swell! The Journal shed manly tears at her departure-"Against the well-planned schedules of her rivals, Dorothy has only her wits and the brave heart that beats under her trim little jacket"-and proudly published the note that came fluttering down from the Hindenburg's gondola in Lakehurst, N.J.: "Goodbye, America.

"Those Italian military uniforms are wonderful!" "I loved Italy, but Greece takes the cake for magnificent beauty!" "The Near East reeks with romance!" "Just think-tomorrow I'll breakfast in Basra, lunch in Bahrein and have my dinner at Sharjah...
...strong is the Goldwater swell that many leaders are finding it dangerous to oppose him. Indiana's State Chairman H. Dale Brown, a Rockefeller admirer, resigned recently because so many party officials were working openly for Goldwater. Ohio's Rhodes is leery of Goldwater, fears Barry would totally lose the state's Negro vote and might revive the explosive right-to-work issue. But Ohio observers agree that the party's rank and file is strongly for Goldwater and Rhodes may have trouble holding the delegation in line. Similarly, Michigan Republicans are getting restive about Romney...
