...with Sharon in her senior year at Stanford and Jay in West Virginia, their romance flourished-thanks to long-distance telephone calls and jet airliners. In recent months, they have been sighted holding hands at Senator Robert Kennedy's Hickory Hill party for Diplomat Averell Harriman and walking arm in arm at Caneel Bay in the Virgin Islands. In Positano, a lovely cliffside Italian resort on the Tyrrhenian Sea, they displayed what one observer described as "certainly a fondness...
Tallest structure in the overall picture below is the $9,300,000 U.S. pavilion, Buckminster Fuller's 187-ft. geodesic dome. In front of it, across an arm of the St. Lawrence, the Russians are lavishing $15 million on a vast exhibition hall roofed with a wing curved as if for takeoff. All exhibitors chipped in $45 million for the hexagon-sided theme pavilions ("Man and His World") at left on the far island. For the combination of an inverted-step pyramid and a truncated pylon in the picture at left, Great Britain is ignoring austerity to invest...

A puff of the other control jet reverses the process, just as a small voltage change on the grid of a vacuum tube can control a relatively heavy flow of current through the tube's plate circuit. Like a vacuum tube, the fluidic circuit can thus be used as a switch...
University of Florida fans call him "Batman," "Goldflinger," and "S.O.S."

A rival coach calls him "the greatest quarterback in the history of college football." Now wait a minute, fellows. His high school coach remembers him as being "slow and awkward." Teammates say he is forever falling asleep. And his team has lost two out of its last three games. But last week sportswriters voted to award Florida's Steve Spurrier...
Political meddling in business is as commonplace in Italy as pasta on the dinner table. The late Enrico Mattei, for instance, operated E.N.I., the giant government petroleum complex, almost as a financial arm of the Christian Democratic Party. A major exception to the rule has been Rome's Banca Nazionale del Lavoro, which for 53 years has kept out of politics even though the Treasury Ministry is its majority stockholder...
