...enough to challenge the prowess of every red-blooded driver from Bognor Regis to Balquhidder when the initial 72-mile stretch of Britain's first six-lane throughway opened last week after 590 days abuilding. M1, as the government proudly labeled the London-Birmingham Motorway, is intended-when its final 45 miles are completed-to almost halve the time it now takes to crawl along a major industrial artery (average speed: 23.4 m.p.h.). But it boasts one feature guaranteed to lure speed-starved drivers from all parts of Britain. It has no speed limit...

...main lobby is bigger than the main concourse of either Grand Central or Pennsylvania stations. To handle the 2.3 million passengers expected to move through it next year on 104 daily flights, the terminal is equipped with inclined ramps instead of stairways, a null electronic flight-information board, three-lane enclosed auto driveways that lead into the first and second floors, a dining room, cocktail lounge, and arcades for shops. Jutting out on either side of the terminal are two null loading arcades that can handle as many as 24 aircraft at a time...

...best-passing Sunday-school teacher that Dallas ever had. For when he is not teaching the youngsters at the Lovers' Lane Methodist Church, bullnecked, rangy (6 ft. 3 in., 195 Ibs.) Don Meredith plays quarterback for Southern Methodist. Last week Meredith had a painfully sprained thumb on his passing hand and a charley horse to boot when he faced tough Texas Tech. But in the fourth period, with the score tied 7-7, Meredith faded with the ball, twice wiggled free of tacklers, and floated a 31-yd. touchdown pass into the end zone. As S.M.U. went...

Khrushchev inspected Eisenhower's prize herd of Black Angus cattle, dropped by the main farmhouse to greet...
