The newly created matter is generally believed to appear throughout space in the form of hydrogen atoms (one proton and one electron each), but Gold and Hoyle now think it may first appear as neutrons. Since neutrons are unstable, they break up almost immediately, yielding equal numbers of protons and electrons. This neutron decay releases so much energy that the resulting "cosmological material" has the temperature...

There is a definite need for intellectuals in this country today. The modern world needs more people-including girls-who think for themselves." All down the line, urged Sister Margaret, education for U.S. women should be stiffened. More women should go on to graduate school, be fitted for "a better contribution to American life." Said she of classical-bent Trinity, which sends half its girls to graduate school...
