Mrs. Troppi obtained a prescription for Norinyl, Syntex Laboratories' contraceptive pill, and her nervousness vanished. But her calm mood, she claimed, was the result of her druggist's mistake: he had given her Nardil, a tranquilizer, and Mrs. Troppi later gave birth to a son.

Researchers engaged in chlormadinone test programs point out that no one knows whether beagle bitches are more likely than other animals to develop abnormal and possibly precancerous nodules under heavy stimulation by hormones. (It is known, on the other hand, that monkeys given similar doses did not develop the lumps.) Furthermore, even the three pathologists who examined the "breast tissue" from these beagles could not agree completely about which samples were benign and which might...

Last week Polaroid (up $10.63), Motorola (up $14.13) and Teledyne (up $15.75) carried on the surge, and IBM shot up a whopping $28.50, thanks to a $17 jump Thursday, to close at a record $496.50 per share. But the industrials are catching up, partly because cash-heavy institutional investors (notably mutual funds) are upping their purchases.

They felt it would be more natural to do this by providing nothing but added estrogen until the 20th day, and then giving progestin only briefly. San Antonio Researcher Dr. Joseph W. Goldzieher worked with Syntex Laboratories to develop the resulting "sequentials." Beginning with Day 5, the woman takes a white estrogen pill for 15 days, then a distinctively colored
