Space Toboggan. Professor of Aerodynamics Antonio Ferri of the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn is a skip man.

Fort Worth is putting a new, 60-man orchestra into the field; the San Antonio Symphony claimed, the distinction of having hired the first woman concertmaster of a major U.S. orchestra: shy, petite Nannette Levy, 30, who throws her whole body behind her impassioned bowing.
