Forward in Force. There seemed little possibility that such preparations would soon be put to use. Both Red China and North Viet Nam continued to bellow against the U.S. retaliation, and Peking announced that more than 20 million people on the mainland had taken part in angry demonstrations against the U.S. Breathlessly, the Reds disclosed that in Fukien province alone 150,000 Chinese militiamen were limbering up with grenade-tossing exercises, target practice and river-crossing drills-and produced carefully posed pictures to prove it. But in terms of actual military support to North Viet Nam, Peking provided only...
...three audio-visual paintings by Marina Stern, including Hay Day, the talking nude. In Judgment Day, she depicts a standing angel trumpeting the word "Repent." Fastened to the canvas is a curved sports-car horn, and by squeezing the large rubber bulb that honks it, a gallerygoer can bellow an unrepentent riposte full of good Bronx cheer. Independence Day puts a tiny Statue of Liberty atop a large black pyramid. When the switch is turned on, Miss Liberty's torch blinks redly, and an ingeniously spliced tape combines the distorted voice of Mae West with electronic sounds that convey...
...first students to gallop out of the labs and libes for the annual monkey-see, monkey-do monkeyshines were the fair sons of John Harvard. Seems some sycamores along Cambridge's Memorial Drive were due for the ax (TIME, Feb. 14), and before anyone could bellow "Rinehart!" 2,000 undergraduate tree lovers rushed to the defense. "Two, four, six, eight, sycamores foliate," chanted the Cantabs fiercely. Then the crowd decided to block traffic instead. That brought the cops, who brought four dogs, which brought indignant cries of "Cambridge, Cambridge" (Md., not Mass.). A few yips and nips later...
...Kiting. The market has given the bulls many strong points to bellow about. April, with an average of 5.6 million shares traded every day, was the third most active month in Big Board history (behind June 1933 and October 1929). Daily trading volume is now poking above 6,000,000 so often that hardly anyone gasps any more, even though just two years ago the daily average was a paltry 3.8 million. What especially pleases the bulls is the high quality of the most popular stocks. Leading the upswing are such solid blue chips as General Motors, Jersey Standard, Singer...
Trailing a muffled bellow from its eight engines, Saturn seemed to rise with unnatural slowness. During the first ten seconds it climbed less than twice its own length, then it quickly gathered speed and rumbled behind a low-flying cloud. At 48 miles' altitude, the massive first-stage booster shut off and separated. The hydrogen-burning second stage took over, and it burned perfectly for eight minutes. When it was 1,300 miles downrange and 375 miles north of Antigua Island, the triumphant announcement came: Saturn had reached orbiting speed. The new satellite weighs...
