...course. Moments lat er, Pilot Joseph Tosolini was radioing that intercepting MIG fighters were forcing him to land on Iturup, one of the Soviet Kurile Islands. For Tosolini, 214 U.S. servicemen bound for Viet Nam aboard Flight 253A and the crew of 16, the interrupted maiden flight of the brand-new giant DC-8 jetliner turned into 55 hours of bone-wearying imprisonment that had diplomats in Washington and Moscow on tenterhooks...
Plainly, the President will need a brand-new scenario, and some of the ideas tossed around would do credit to DeMille. Why not fly off, after the November election, to Africa? Then to Moscow to sign the nuclear nonproliferation treaty and coo with Kosygin in the Kremlin. Next, Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, and tea with Harold Wilson for old time's sake. A final fling in Asia, L.BJ.'s personal preserve, and then a philosophic valedictory designed to galvanize the nation into thinking about its duties at home and abroad...
...ultimate test of the thesis will be the brand-new Walt Disney city in central Florida now being built from scratch on 43 square miles of swampy flatlands. The first nucleus, programmed to open in 1970, will in effect be a Disneyland East, and already 400 acres have been cleared and a system of dams, lakes and canals is being constructed.

...space capsule in which astronauts reconstitute even their own waste. This concept is at the base of the federally aided "Experimental City" being planned by Geophysicist Athelstan Spilhaus, president of Philadelphia's Franklin Institute, who dreams of solving the pollution problem by dispersing millions of Americans into brand-new cities limited to perhaps 250,000 people on 2,500 acres of now vacant land. The pilot city, to be built by a quasi-public corporation, will try everything from reusable buildings to underground factories and horizontal elevators to eliminate air-burning cars and buses. The goal is a completely...
