...games remain. Cornell and Rutgers play in Ithaca and this should be about the best game in the country. Rutgers upset Princeton and promises to make a hard run at the Big Red. But most experts (and guessers) expect the Cornell defense to hold firm for a slender 9-6 decision...

...patients treated with L-dopa for as long as two years. In earlier trials, the drug had been given intravenously and in small doses. Cotzias gave it by mouth and built up the dosage steadily to much higher levels. Because L-dopa may decrease appetite drastically and upset the metabolic system, patients must be studied closely in a metabolic ward.

...view. Some angles which scream Staged, viz. shooting a collapse from behind a sofa so that suddenly the subject drops from sight. Some over-cute editorializing: Emilie walking beneath a marquee which proclaims "Thoroughly Modern Millie"; Elizabeth walking beneath a traffic sign which reads Playground. Hardly worth getting upset about...
