...Bobby Hull goes, so go the Black Hawks," runs an old Chicago saying. ICE HOCKEY
Countdown-Minus-10. At 1 p.m. on Friday last week, Grissom, White and Chaffee strolled casually into the gantry elevator on Pad 34, rose swiftly to a sterilized "white room," then ambled along the 20-ft. catwalk to the stainless-steel hull of the capsule, now secured to the Saturn rocket inside the launching complex. The craft was like an old friend, for they had spent hours in it during vacuum-chamber tests in the Houston Space Center, had run through identical launch-simulation procedures several times before...
...Hull, "for nearly 100 years, and the people are worse off than they were at the beginning." He proposed that an international trusteeship be set up with a polyglot membership including French, Chinese, Russian, Philippine, U.S. and Indo-Chinese representatives, to prepare the country for independence.

Built at a cost of $500,000, the Dame has a radical rudder (broad at the top, tapering sharply at the foot) and a 92-ft. aluminum mast that is built in sections for extra flexibility-to keep the mainsail flatter while beating to windward. She also has Jock Sturrock at the helm. In unofficial competition with Gretel, Dame Pattie...
