Science writers outdid themselves reporting that all physics was in a state of chaos and shock. But the real shock came almost a decade ago when Professors Tsung Dao Lee of Columbia and Chen Ning Yang of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton challenged the concept of "parity" and the idea of symmetry in matter and antimatter for so-called "weak" forces in nature. What was needed was an experiment to check out possible violations of physical symmetry in stronger forces...

...when the actors can't control their movement, the effect is alternately annoying and absurd. Dan Deitch as Yang Sun, the unemployed flyer, just tries to do too much with his body. He contorts across the stage, face grimacing and body tensed. Everyone knows that Yang is a bastard, so Shen Te's love for him can only be based on sheer sex appeal.

...brick walls, it expects to challenge any university in physics research within a few years. Its $30,000-a-year President Toll is a theoretical physicist from the University of Maryland; his reputation-plus a $45,000-a-year salary-recently lured Nobel Physicist C. N. Yang to Stony Brook to head an Institute of Theoretical Physics that will have a $2,700,000 nuclear lab. Toll, who has also captured English Scholars Alfred Kazin and Peter Alexander, expects all his big-name professors to teach undergrads and all his researchers to apply their research to their teaching...
