...Nixon to help us start working together in Europe ?not only in policy matters, but in our economic life, our technology, in science and business. There is much for us to do together. Maybe he can help us toward agreement on common purposes, and then we can move forward toward meeting them." Undramatic as that may be, it is the aim of Nixon's first, but not last, trip to Europe...
...front fuselage, Pilot Trainee Yoram Peres doubled up with three bullets in his abdomen (he was later reported recovering). Copilot Moshe Heichel was hit in the hand. Over the plane's loudspeaker, passengers heard Captain Israel Ganot order, "Everybody down on the floor. Don't move. Keep quiet. God is with us." One who did not obey was Mordechai Rahamim, 22, an ex-paratrooper whom El Al preferred to call an armed passenger but who was evidently a hired security agent. Holding a .22-caliber Beretta automatic, he jumped from an emergency exit and ran toward the attackers...
Crash Course. The great groupie middle class is composed of the "gate crashers." Organized and persistent, they scour the newspapers for notice of a rock group's arrival in their city, then post lookouts at transportation terminals and hotels.

Most of the tenors who attempt these heroic roles are a bit jugendlich (youthful-sounding). Meantime, great dramatic sopranos like Birgit Nilsson are Isoldes in search of Tristans, and some of Wagner's finest music is scant ed in the repertory...
...fourth movement--air--is less than ten minutes long. But it is the show's highlight. A cross-stage projection of red and blue light allows the two dancers--Miss Crouse and Miss Hurst--to use the depth of the stage in an extraordinary way. They move their faces and bodies in and out of the light, being and not being. This movement's score consists of music from the other three movements, recorded in an echo chamber, wailing back and forth across the stage like the turning of the spheres of the universe...
