Polo Association receive handicaps of from zero to ten goals in ratio to their ability. To enter the Open, a team's four members must have a total handicap of 21 goals or better. In the whole world, only that minute corner of Long Island bounded on the north by the Sound, on the east by Jericho...

Some "giant molecules" of organic tissue are so long that, although their net charge is zero or nearly zero, the positive charge is concentrated at one end, the negative at the other end. The distance between them is a factor in the dipole moment, which is, roughly speaking, a measure of electric leverage. Dr. Cohn measured the charges and the dipole moments by observing molecular behavior under a bombardment of radio waves. If some stimulus discharged the positive tension at one end, the negative charge would redistribute itself, affecting other molecules. If these molecules twitched in response to the charge...
