A soda fountain and an unlocked cupboard brimming with cookies and candy await any child with a nagging thirst and a sweet tooth. Outside in the grassy courtyard, a concrete nude "supermother"-twice life-size-sprawls on the grass. "She takes a lot of abuse," says Bettelheim. "The children stomp...

With their strong cola sales, front-running Coca-Cola and runner-up PepsiCo have long dominated the soda-pop industry.
