...space; a 25? piece buys a skyway ride to Fantasyland, reposing behind" Sleeping Beauty's moated castle, where still another ride whisks visitors over a make-believe London, Never-Never Land and Captain Hook's Hideaway. At nearby Frontierland, a Wild West stagecoach and a mule train churn the dust; if business slacks, villainous Black Bart conveniently shoots it out with Sheriff Lucky in a haze of gun smoke, later distributes used cartridge cases to the newly corralled crowd. On Disney's miniature Mississippi, a five-eighths scale stern wheeler carries 9,000 landlubbers daily over waters...
...another magnetic force instead of by the passive strength of metal. Theoretically this can be done by elaborately wound coils, or by copper sheets intersecting in intricate ways. The theory looks so good that the three scientists are promising to deliver many million gauss of magnetic field, and to churn matter in ways that it has never been churned before. One possibility: a magnetic gun that can shoot a small pellet at 100,000 ft. per second. This is nearly three times the speed needed to shoot it wholly free of the earth's gravitation...
John P. Marquand's Sincerely, Willis Wayde was not the best butter out of the churn of U.S. letters' smoothest old smoothy, but it was creamy enough to provide superior TV drama last week over CBS's Playhouse go (Thurs., 9:30-11:00 p.m.).

Gilroy had the sense to stick close to Marquand's story, and the talent to weave many of the bland Marquand nuances of class and manner into a go-minute teleplay that had consistency, pace and believability. Good direction (by Vincent Done-hue) carried the story past Gilroy...
...Coraggio was the type of ship which confronts a pilot with the toughest problems and dangers of all. She was built to carry the biggest load that could squeeze through the ditch. Her twin screws churn up mud within inches of the bottom, tend to make the big ship yaw from side to side. Besides, she was heading south full of highly volatile free gases left (because of an evaporator breakdown) from her last load of crude. A single bump, a single spark, could explode the gas in an instant mass of flame. Skipper Aniello Coppola stuck close...
Whatever the reason, bonny Shelley continued to churn out championship performances. On the last night of the Olympic tryouts at Detroit's Brennan pools last week, the tireless 18-year-old won the 100-meter butterfly in 1:12.3, just half a second over her own world record. Even if she has to do it all by herself, Shelley is determined to win her country an Olympic gold medal, something no U.S. woman swimmer could do four years ago at Helsinki...
