...worse, the coordination between commercial and military flights is so poor that Chancellor Helmut Schmidt has ordered a Cabinet study of the problem. In 1976 there were 221 "near collisions"?approaches close enough to terrify those who knew what had happened. Says a senior air traffic controller at Koln-Bonn airport: "It's like playing Russian roulette in the air." The fact that there have been no collisions in recent years is testimony to West Germany's wary pilots, sophisticated ground equipment and a superb group of air controllers, surely one of the most harassed contingents in a highly...
...Conceptualization is snaking its way into the paradise of the body's motion, too. The Tanz-Forum Koln, a modern dance company from Cologne, Germany, exemplified the insidious trend at the Loeb this weekend. They didn't dance so much as they intellectualized movement.

Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8:00 p.m. $7.95, $5.95 for student rush. Call...
