...Chicago Black Hawks, Russia's hockey team rattled off seven straight victories, outscoring its opposition by 54 to 10. Against Germany, the Russian goalie only had to make 19 saves; the German goalie made 95-which was still ten too few.

A show of 47 works that opens this week at Manhattan...
...Scott ring in deftly shaped performances. As General "Buck" Turgidson, chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Scott is the brash, boyish paradigm of technological know-how, whether he is contemplating megadeaths ("I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed") or the superstructure of his bikini-clad secretary Tracy Reed, a Miss Foreign Affairs with no top secrets...
