...investigation of the claims against Charles Engelhard reveals that he is more of a tool than a symbol. In fact, George Croft of The Boston Globe (Oct. 25, 1978, page 70) reports that Charles Engelhard was actually a liberal Democrat who was also a liberal on apartheid! Mr. Croft adds that Mr. Engelhard was a close friend of Presidents Kennedy and Johnson and served as a personal representative of the White House at the coronation of Pope Paul VI and at the Independence Day celebrations in two Africa countries: Gabon and Zambia. Mr. Croft also quoted from a speech Engelhard...
Worse still is the political tool the People's Temple had become before many of its members left California. Jim Jones became the late George Moscone's Housing Authority Commissioner in San Francisco two years ago because he could, on six hours' notice, produce two or three thousand obedient bodies to flesh out a campaign rally or go door-to-door with literature.

The history of student objection to the CRR spans nine years, and the boycott was perhaps the last vestige of the protest movements that produced the forerunners...
...different drummer for Helga Doty, a senior research associate in Biochemistry, and her coworkers, who have also begun working in the P-3 laboratory at the Biolabs. Doty's group is tackling the vast problem of how genes are turned on and off--using gene splicing as a research tool rather than an end in itself. She has been studying RNA--one of the intermediate steps the cell employs in translating the DNA code--for 22 years. Whereas Gilbert has a definite medical goal pushing him on, Doty must stab in the dark and hope to come up with...
...just a fantastic and powerful tool," Doty says. This method of including E. coli to clone many copies of the DNA template is cheap, efficient, and, above all, it produces pure mixtures of the DNA. Despite gene splicing abilities, which may speed up the work by years, Doty says without any hint of discouragement, "disecting out what any of this means is going to take a tremendous amount of time...
