PEPSI-COLA'S UNICEF exhibit features an indoor boat ride through a wonderland of Disney dolls, representing children of every country and culture singing and dancing, winking and blinking to a mad little tune called It's a Small World.

Fatheaded Whale. Last week a deep-diving laboratory was launched by the Electric Boat Division of General Dynamics Corp. in Groton, Conn.
