...Erik Bruhn, who bounded through the Nutcracker; and Frank Schaufuss and Mona Vangsaa, who gave a touching performance of ill-fated young love in Romeo and Juliet. Londoners, used to the heady perfection of Sadler's Wells, loved the more natural Danes, brought them back again & again to bow to the applause-a thrill they seldom get at home in Denmark, where tradition strictly limits curtain calls...
...Though the girls are squeezable," leers Cupid, "with a swan it isn't feasible").

Reason: the Air Force, which was to supply funds to construct buildings to house the machines, has shifted the expense to the operators. If all three companies abandon the program, the Air Force will be left with only ten presses of the 20 it had once planned, and only six companies to run them...
