Doers can teach too says Nobel physicist Bloch at Stanford
Dr Felix Bloch, Nobel Prize co winner in 1952, argues that capable doers can be effective teachers. He has taught introductory physics at Stanford for 14 years, stressing that teaching beginners clarifies ideas and inspires others. He urges valuing the few who count and notes good teachers need not be top researchers.

Pension increases and GI insurance options for veterans
The new 1965 veterans law raises VA pension payments for aged veterans and those with non service connected disabilities starting January 1 1965 with increases ranging 7.2 to 15 percent. It also expands eligibility for pensions for 65 plus year olds and offers GI life insurance up to 10000 starting May 1 1965 for those with service connected disabilities and some without. The act excludes 10 percent of Social Security from other income and exempts wives earnings from the veteran income calculation. Veterans should recalculate eligibility under the new rules.
