...year bought four artificial fertilizer plants from the U.S.; it ordered the next 13 from Western Europe and Japan. Pullman Corp. was one of the first U.S. companies to land a big contract in the Soviet Union when it won the job of designing the foundry for the huge Kama River truck plant.

Down but not out in Paris, Dr. George Goggins and his mistress Dulcinea decide to found a sex clinic for dissatisfied couples. Why not? Goggins is a biologist specializing in human fertility, and Dulcinea is:-well, skilled and nubile. Before they can say Kama Sutra, a throng of tense American and English twosomes have assembled for lessons. Soon odd things are happening. The shrill, squeaky voices of the wives turn plush and throaty. The husbands, mostly NATO officials, lose their interest in rocketry and war. One way and another, their marriages bloom as never before...

In light of this hunger for credits, Moscow was stunningly humiliated when the Senate tacked an amendment onto an Export-Import Bank bill setting the paltry $300 million limit on the amount that would be available to the Soviets.

...intense minutes, the dancers flit and fit around and into each other like a set of oiled and animated cork screws inspired by the Kama Sutra. Al though the form is that of classical dance, the positions are not. They are an exploration of every inch of space on the stage and around the dancers themselves. Haydée oozes elegantly across the floor on her bottom like a geometric snake, slithering effortlessly upward, feet first and legs spread, over Cragun's waiting shoulders.
