...mime-laden choreography is ably danced by the ABT soloists. The Juliet of the premiere was Italy's Carla Fracci, whose gentle, girlish way of evoking youthful passion is complemented by the stiff, manly Romeo of Ivan Nagy.

The battery-powered car should be able to cross crevasses as wide as 28 in., clamber up and down slopes of 25° and travel up to 40 miles. Each of its four wide-track, wire-mesh wheels is driven by its own gears and a i-h.p. electric motor.

...SPFC meeting during which evening-jacketed bourgeois folk turn on for the first time.
