Troyanovsky, son of ex-Czarist Officer Alexander Troyanovsky, who was the U.S.S.R.'s first Ambassador to Washington (1934-38), attended the Quakers' Sidwell Friends School in Washington ("Blessed with that charm, the certainty to please," said the student quarterly), put in his freshman year at Swarthmore before returning to Moscow University.

Physicist Edward Teller traversed the north side of Oregon's Mount Hood with his son Paul, 16, and daughter Susan Wendi, 13. Darkness trapped them near a swollen stream, and the "Father of the H-Bomb" thought the water looked too heavy to be forded at night. When rescuers reached them in the cold predawn, Teller assured them: "We were not lost. We simply got a late start." Said one rescuer ambiguously: "Dr. Teller had a good case of the shakes...
