...allows submersion for eight hours at a time. Dealer Erich Mylius of Hamburg reports more than 500 orders from the boat show alone, most of them from the U.S., and hopes to be turning out 1,500 a month by September. Price: $1,425. > For those who would rather hover than sink: a flying machine that never gets more than 9 in. off the ground. The Dobson Air Dart is a 95-lb. wheelless bug, 8 ft. long and 5 ft. wide, with a kayak-style cockpit and a zo-h.p. engine that drives...
...There hover over the play the tutelary figures of Strindberg, Hellman, the late O'Neill (especially Long Day's Journey Into Night), and the Sartre of No Exit. And why not? Albee was out to create a major work, and he might as well vie with the best. He has, in fact, come up with far and away the most impressive new American play to reach Broadway since Miss Hellman's Toys in the Attic three years...
...house-and a house of marvels it is. In it, people of all shapes from heaven knows what time or place materialize in room after room. In his current one-man show at Los Angeles' Felix Landau Gallery (see color), he has heads and figures that seem to hover indecisively between existence and nonexistence. His sculptured heads achieve somewhat the same feeling by looking as if they had been buried for a while and had then decided to rejoin the world. Jones, who is an associate professor of art at U.C.L.A., seems to see reality as a pattern...
...return to earth without landing. But if all is well, they will make their landing attempt on their next close approach to the moon. By burning sufficient fuel, they will check the motion of their bug, making it sink slowly toward the surface. They will be able to hover for about one minute and move sideways 1,000 ft. in search of a good landing place. Finally the bug will settle down, steadying itself on four spidery legs...
Roaring into a hell-hot 3.443 m.p.h.. it peaked into a graceful arc. seemed to hover uncertainly for a brief moment, then hurtled downward. Minutes later, its tail skids carved a high rooster tail of dust in the wind-slicked silt of Rogers Dry Lake in California. The plane stopped. "Well." said Test Pilot Joe Walker as he threw off the switches in the cockpit, "there's that one for today." In his X-15, Walker had just streaked to a new altitude record for manned planes: 246.700 ft.-46.7 miles above the earth...
