Chicago's O'Hare, the world's busiest commercial airport, sometimes was logging two-hour tieups. One frustrated Detroit-bound passenger decided to drive instead-and almost beat the plane. An English tourist in Los Angeles sampled U.S. airline hang-ups and threatened to take a ship home through the Panama Canal. A pilot flying from Bermuda to New York advised passengers on takeoff-accurately, as it turned out-of his three-hour flight plan: "Two to get there and one to circle." American Airlines reported that the previous week's average 88-min. delay...
Deep Down Inside. Parental horror is another thing that mixed couples encounter. "Parents are a real hang-up about that part of my life," complains Candy Reuben, 21, a recent University of California graduate whose mother refuses to allow a black man in the house...

"The only things we're trying to prove," says Long, "are that we can finish first and break records doing it." And hang the expense.

It takes 27 winches to handle her 2,900 sq. ft. of sail-including two huge Graydon Smith "coffee grinders" that are improved versions of those...
...artists shown, 39% were born or are living in the U.S. But Documenta makes no case for a U.S. monopoly on styles. The sprightly satires of Britons Richard Hamilton and David Hockney hang in the same gallery with their better-known U.S. pop equivalents, such as Tom Wesselmann and Robert Indiana. Indeed, it is Documenta's unity that last week prompted Sculptress Louise Nevelson to remark: "Usually an artist works in loneliness. But here, one suddenly experiences the kinship one always suspects one might have with the rest of the artistic world...
