...hospital in a neighboring town. And within minutes of the shooting, nearly half of Boyd's townspeople began gathering in a sullen, jeering crowd outside the town hall. Cried one voice: "I hope Cockrell dies." Cried another: "We sure won't miss him. He can stay gone." With such sentiment clearly prevailing, Main Street could start preparing for the nightly roar of the hot-rodders...
Beneath the Arctic ice last week for a several-weeks stay was the second U.S. submarine in eight days to take the short route to the North Pole: the nuclear-powered Skate. The first, Nautilus, ducked under the Pacific and emerged six days later in the Atlantic, mostly to prove it could be done. The Skate, skippered by young (37) Commander James Calvert, has popped up several times in ice gaps -within missile range of Russia. Traveling since then in expanding circles around the top of the world, Skate returns next month to New London, Conn. By then, Skate will...

This month, when the Air Force's Atlas sped 2,500 miles over the Atlantic, pictures of its virtually blunt nose seemed strange to the streamline-minded. But current Atlas and Thor noses are likely to stay blunt for good reason. Developed by General Electric, they are made mainly of heavy copper, which helpfully spreads and diffuses the heat. But the main design trick is to keep the nose from ever getting too hot. The bluntness creates a shielding shock wave out front that cuts the velocity of the air actually hitting the nose to subsonic speed, then slows...
