...city for 20 years or more may be sent back home at once if they lose their job. Others, after a lifetime's residence in South Africa, find their wives "endorsed out" * under the new restrictions if the women were born outside South Africa. In western Cape Province alone, 500 men and women are now banished monthly. Even worse is the plight of some 5,800 nonwhites jailed in recent months as part of the government's antisabotage drive, which increased South Africa's prison population to a record of some 67,700 (out of a total...
Coney Island's biggest addition for 1963 is Astroland, a $3,000,000 fun-and-games nexus devoted to space exploration. It has the Cape Canaveral Satellite Jet-passengers enter the rocket, fasten seat belts, then blast off with engines roaring as filmed special-effects from actual space shots conjure up a journey to the moon. The Colonel Glenn Sky Ride has 16 plastic bubbles orbiting 80 feet above the boardwalk. For downward exploration the Neptune Diving Bell encloses 30 people, drops them 35 feet down to an "ocean floor" where live porpoises play. Further along is the Double...
...small area of ocean marked by bright orange buoys. Hopefully, the Trieste will soon photograph the actual wreck.

In contrast to the attitude of the 19th century lady who said, "I lie still and think of a new way to trim a hat," the unblushing bride of today, in the words of one case history, expects every night to be "like a Cape Canaveral countdown." Author Davis finds many modern husbands and wives harassed and unsettled by the notion that anything other than a mutual orgasm amounts to sexual failure. Writes she: "We have substituted new fears for old ones, new guilt for inherited anxiety...
...embittered wife sit in a cavernous theater to watch a showing of screen tests. A moment of fantasy: a critic, who has never ceased his sniping, is summarily taken up into the balcony and hanged. Reality again: everyone leaves the theater and a caravan takes them to an eerie Cape Canaveral set for the film, which is to be a science-fiction movie. Reporters badger Mastroianni once more, and he crawls under a table and shoots himself. This clears his head once and for all, and in a moment of revelation he sees that the way to turn chaos into...
