...this sort of treatment works; Julia is currently ranked No. 6 in the Nielsen ratings. Analyzing those numbers, NBC statisticians report that Julia attracts an "upscale" audience -more urban, wealthier and better educated than the average. There are no indications of either a boycott by Southern whites or heavier tune-in among blacks. Predictably, though, Negro militants are outraged. And, to be sure, Julia is rarely confronted with the tough problems of being born black.

Franklin & Marshall's regular 177-pounder, however, is also injured...
More and more of the heavier trucks are diesel-powered. At White Truck, for example, more than 80% of this year's production had diesel engines, compared with only 55% in 1960. Meanwhile, Ford, General Motors and International Harvester are working on turbine-powered trucks that would be feasible on turnpikes. The turbine consumes fuel completely and quietly, producing a low noise level and nontoxic exhaust. But since its high fuel consumption makes the turbine-truck economical only at full throttle, the rigs would have to drop the trailers at terminals just off the expressway. From those terminals, conventional...

...airlift runs a delicate course between the thunderstorms always encountered at night, and the radar-directed anti-aircraft fire which grows heavier as the storms fade. When he began flying for the outfit, it had six Constellations and one DC-7. Of the Constellations, one was hijacked and flown to Madrid; a second was impounded when it made a forced landing on Malta (when its flight plan said it was going to New York). A third crashed in the jungle killing all aboard, and a fourth was blown up in Bisau, reportedly by a South African...
