Over the past few months, the researchers, Olds in particular, have created a new dream. It is neither a "Crazy School" nor an "Instant School," but a "Tri-School"--a plan to break down, at least in part, the idea that education should take place in schools at all.

From New York, London, Vienna and Stuttgart, IBM rushed in programmers to solve particular problems. Sperry Rand, displaying eight plaques representing earlier sales to Communist customers, advertised itself proudly as "The Pioneer of Automation in Socialist States...
