...doubt who the winner was. Here was Nikita Khrushchev, 64, racing through the statistics of his triumphs-Lunik, Sputniks, "mass-produced" ICBMs, new targets for industry, farming and education. Gone was the last Congress' talk of collective leadership; gone were those saber-toothed old commissars (Molotov, Kaganovich, Malenkov et al.), who had been bloodlessly banished and disgraced...
