...from 23 nations who gathered in Junin, Argentina, for last week's world soaring championships, engines are just excess weight, and flying a conventional airplane is about as exciting as riding a subway to work. To the sailplaner, the good things in life are a cramped cockpit, a buoyant wing, the song of the wind, and unending miles...

Sigma 7 bobbed into a beautifully circular orbit, and calm, cool Navy Commander Walter Marty ("Wally") Schirra, 39, was in buoyant good humor.

To prove their point, the Common Marketeers point to Britain, which as a nonmember still must hurdle the high tariffs that the Six impose on outsiders. Despite this, British automakers have doubled their sales to the Common Market in the past six months, now sell more cars there (9,000 a month) than...
