...electrifying days late last month, a spectacular rumor spread among U.S. scientists. British astronomers had detected signals so regular and pulsating so rapidly from four different regions in outer space that they might have been sent by intelligent beings. Last week, when details of the British findings reached the U.S., the possibility that the pulsations had been artificially produced by an advanced civilization seemed remote. But even if the causes were natural, scientists on both sides of the Atlantic were in firm agreement that discovery of the pulsing signals, named "pulsars" by the British, was one of the major astronomical...
...tall, block-shouldered Tuned-in from Pittsburgh who spans the gap between classical and modern like a colossus. He had his fling at the far-out, once stood stark still onstage for four minutes (Dance Observer responded by running a review that consisted of four inches of blank space). But today he also has a bit of Mr. B. in his,bonnet. Aureole is a freshly pressed version of a washed-out, frilly "white ballet," in which his dancers interweave flurries of mincing steps with great swooping glides without a seam showing. In Orbs, a kind of astronaughty tour...
...ALWIN NIKOLAIS, 56, is a Flipped-Out, plugged into a high-voltage fantasy world where stage and sound effect share equal billing with the dancers. In Vaudeville of the Elements, figures in bulging fluorescent balloons waddle and contract like pregnant accordians. One dancer wrestles with a space-age cobweb. Others, with illuminated lampshades on their hands and feet, do a close-order drill. Now the dancers are drunken caterpillars, now they are partnering their own distorted shadows. All the while, nine speakers ringing the auditorium sizzle, crackle and explode with electronic music; twelve slide projectors and 30 spots splash colors...

The upper two levels will add space to Houghton Library for its Manuscript Division, Theatre Collection, and general stacks...
...response comes from a brazen woman with several millions and the freedom of socialites in her honey-raucous voice. Clearly the voice does not belong to Anastasia. Hunter may be suggesting a parallel between Hip and High Society (the connections are not so slim, Jim, but there is no space to make them here), or perhaps some platinum vein in Anastasia's mind...
