...Moynihan Report. Catch My Soul is a rock version of Othello. Producer Mitch Miller will revisit John Steinbeck's East of Eden. Arnold Bennett's Great Adventure becomes Darling of the Day, with music by Jule Styne. Plays returning in musical incarnation: The Happy Time, with fail-safe Director Gower Champion and Robert Goulet as leading man; and The Madwoman of Chaillot, by the same team (Robert E. Lee and Jerome Lawrence, Composer Jerry Herman) that converted Maine. And now, reversing the old pattern, Broadway is borrowing from Hollywood: onstage, the movie The World of Henry Orient will...

All four engines are mechanically linked to a flexible driveshaft set in the leading edges of the wings. If one or more engines fail, all four of the 941's big 15-ft. propellers continue to spin, powered by the engines still running. In addition, the wings are equipped with outsize flaps that lower to an angle of 105°-about 15° more than the flaps of any conventional aircraft...
