...stopped them just where the designer intended that they should pause and look. Probably no building put up in 1962 caused such a world of comment or brought into action so many cameras. Professional critics found dreadful flaws, but to almost everyone else the U.S. Science Pavilion, that pleasure dome of the Space Age at Seattle's Century "21" Exposition, was a modern Xanadu, built for their delight, a declaration of independence from the machine-made monotony of so much of modern architecture...

He even attributes his vigorous health to the Reds; he and his wife inject themselves with a mysterious, Rumanian-developed novocain serum called...
Scheduled to be ready in 1964, the stadium will seat 46,000 in plush bucket-type seats for baseball, 52,000 for football, and upwards of 65,000 for fights and conventions. The dome will be 202 ft. high (well clear of the most towering fly), and its seven tiers will be served by escalators. There will be facilities for 25,000 cars...
