...from aspirin in being a prescription item, but resembles it in being free of patent, royalty and basic-research costs. Yet here again there is a huge price spread: E. R. Squibb & Sons charges the druggist $6.62 for 100 tablets of 200,000 units, while Pennex Products Co. of Verona, Pa., sells the same number, same strength, for 920. And Pennex must meet not only U.S.P. standards, but the running check on all antibiotic batches maintained by two different Government agencies...

Evening concerts are held in a 1,500-seat outdoor theater, a short walk away from the main house through a medieval gate from the palace of the Cappellettis (Shakespeare's Capulets) in Verona.

They manage to subdue their Nazi guards (negligible opposition), don Nazi uniforms (good fit), and bluff or blast their way through Florence, Verona, Milan, and a burning fuel depot into Switzerland.
