...human imagination. Microcapsules of water have been incorporated in cigarette filters. Before a smoker lights up he pinches his cigarette, thus breaking the capsules and moistening the filter. Dry floor-scouring pads containing capsules of cleaning and polishing fluid are also being marketed. Aircraft companies are using rivets coated with microcapsules containing primer. When the rivet is forced into place, the capsules break, allowing the primer to flow over both the rivet and the adjoining metal to protect them from corrosion.

When he has completed a flourish of movements, he has a trick of presenting himself to the audience with shoulders thrown back and arms outstretched, calling for the ovation that never fails to come. His ability to rivet attention on himself-whether in a soaring lift, a pantherlike leap, or a flamboyant succession of jetes-is so marked that resident dancers gather in the wings to watch...
