Number 151 (Story #1), November 15, 1993 by Phillip F. Schewe and Ben Stein

JOHN PEOPLES WILL OVERSEE THE DISMEMBERMENT OF THE SSC while retaining his directorship at Fermilab. Peoples replaces Roy Schwitters, who resigned last week as head of the SSC. An estimated $1.5 billion in SSC shutdown money will go largely for severance to displaced SSC employees and for settling claims from SSC contractors. (The New York Times, 9 Nov. 1993.)
