...though this clumsy troublemaking helped out at home, it was disastrous abroad. In its ten-year existence, Red China had acted aggressively from Korea to Kashmir (see map), and always, in their deep suspicion of "white imperialism," the newly independent neutrals of Southeast Asia had made excuses for Peking. But with the savage repression of the Tibetan revolt, and deliberate provocation of India, Southeast Asians were taking seriously the threat of "yellow imperialism." Burma, which had formerly refused U.S. aid, now recoiled at the thought of loans from Peking. Thailand's Marshal Sarit had placed an embargo on imports...
...properly distributed and who could best spread it and keep it going. As Britain's ruling party for the last eight years, the Tories could claim with some truth that they were the builders of Britain's current boom. But against that. Labor could appeal to the deep-rooted British feeling that no party should be kept in office too long. As election day approached, most of Britain's political experts cagily refused to make predictions and many of London's "turf accountants," i.e., bookies, were refusing to handle election bets.

...wearing thin. U.S. instruments are indeed sophisticated, but to judge by their achievements, Russian space vehicles must be packed with gadgetry that is just as good, perhaps better.

If Lunik III should round the moon and bring back pictures, or even nonpictorial data, about the mysterious far side, the U.S. would have to admit that the Russians are far ahead, not only...

And those who like to follow the impressive accomplishments of men and machines-from tunnels to tough road jobs, to bridge building in Pakistan-may not mind the pure corn of the story line and the predictable antics of those two hefty part ners, Keenan Wynn and Decathlon Star Bob Mathias...
...high tide. By day, the sight of seagulls gliding over the water at close to stalling speed told him that schools of feeding fish (silversides, English herring, mullet) were boiling along the surface, and that stripers might be right behind. At no time did Oscar go more than ankle deep into the surf-believing, with his kind, that it is sinful for man to disturb the striper's water. He scorns newfangled reels that would lessen the challenge...
