Abstract: A rollable support assembly for luggage includes a pair of longitudinal adjustable in length supports having ends terminating in curved end portions so that the major length of the supports rests against the underside of the luggage while the end portions wrap around the corners of the luggage. Additionally, a pair of transverse cross braces which are adjustable in length and incorporate a separate end piece at one end that fits around the luggage corner to terminate adjacent the side thereof. One end of each brace rollably supports a swivel wheel while the opposite end supports a wheel having a fixed axis. Fastening means are employed for fixly securing the supports and the braces to the luggage in appropriate areas such as when the luggage is hard or soft and has a rigid bottom, rigid or soft sides, or a combination of both. Spacers accommodate fitting of the component parts to the luggage. The supports may be placed inside the luggage with the wheeled braces carried on the outside thereof.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for increasing the serum half-life of a pharmacologically active agent. The novel compositions are covalent conjugates of the selected pharmacologically active agent and a transthyretin-binding ligand such as tetraiiodothyroacetic acid, 2,4,6-triiodophenol, flufenamic acid, or the like.

Abstract: A system for controlling the initiation of voting telephone calls by controlling character generators at a group of affiliated television broadcast stations through a control center which receives real-time feedback of telephone voting traffic data from polling terminals at telephone central offices and utilizes this information to regulate visual stimuli broadcast by the television station. The control center initiates polling traffic by causing associated character generators at the affiliate transmitter to produce the desired message displays across the TV screen. The control center monitors the polling call traffic at each central office until it determines that the traffic being generated has reached a level which is not within the traffic-handling capabilities of that particular central office switching machines.
