...great, wonderful, lovely luxury of learning to think." His language has become pure pate de Strasberg. He delves down into the characters he plays until he is scraping the nails in their soles. "A doctor takes a responsibility when he so much as looks at your throat." he says. "I have to dissect the whole man. I'm responsible for how he walks, looks, talks. I can't do this inside myself. I'm a little bored with my self. I have to get it from outside sources. Otherwise I'd live like a hyena, eating...

Had it not been for a sore throat, Green Bay might still be just the paper napkin capital of the U.S. In 1918, Earl Louis Lambeau, a tousleheaded Notre Dame fullback and a disciple of Knute Rockne, came home to Green Bay to have his tonsils removed, stayed on as a $250-a-month shipping clerk at the Indian Packing Co.

Next morning, his wife Ruth, returning from an errand, saw him on the porch of the cabin where he kept his books and his shotgun. Would he like a lift to the main house? "No," said Stanley Walker. "You come back a little later." When...
...machines should be portable and battery-operated. And a Johns Hopkins team, says Dr. James R. Jude, has perfected just such a portable defibrillator. It weighs only 45 lbs., can be powered by dry cells or a car battery. Through electrodes applied to the skin, one below the throat and one below the left nipple, the compact machine delivers 2,000 to 2,200 volts in a one-two pulse-first in one direction, then in the other. When a heart-disease patient or an electric-shock victim has a fibrillation attack, says Dr. Jude, first-aid methods (chest massage...
