...Amazon and Paraná are two of the world's largest sedimentary basins-together nearly 2,000,000 sq. mi. But of potential oceans of oil, only traces have been found; last year Brazil produced only 30% of its requirements from an old field at Bahia...
...balance, Camelot has a far more engaging score than was at first conceded; with a splendid cast and sets, the troubled book is almost overcome!

Commander Victor Prather Jr., made a record flight (21.5 mi.) off the U.S.S. Antietam in the Gulf of Mexico, were picked up by a helicopter shortly after their gondola landed in the water. Commander Ross rode a horsecollar sling to safety. Commander Prather, a Navy medical officer on his third balloon ascent, fell from the sling as he was rising to ward the hovering chopper. Dragged under by the weight of his pressure suit, he died...
