Outwardly, the Bucks County Playhouse in New Hope, Pa., resembles its R.F.D. competitors. Built on the foundations of an 18th century mill, it hangs over a rushing stream, smells of pine, and usually has half a dozen fireflies in the audience. The difference begins at the footlights. Bucks County stands almost alone as a summer theater where the main interest is in new works. Six new plays are on Bucks County's 1961 schedule...
Running the country almost single-handed ("I am one man alone"), he installed a Telex communications system beside his desk, with two fingers banged out a steady stream of bilhetinhos to government offices around the nation. Once, very early in the game, he Telexed a Cabinet minister's office: "The President has been waiting for you since 7 a.m. I would like to know when you plan to arrive." Answered the minister's man at the keyboard: "Colleague, the minister will arrive when he arrives." Brazil's chief executive tapped back: "This colleague here is the President...
...every day, a steady stream of delegations got the green light to line up before the President and listen to his plans for Brazil. One group of farm leaders stood waiting in his office for what seemed an eternity while Quadros finished scribbling some message.

"Then," says one of the farmers, "he looked up and started talking without greeting us or asking us to sit down. We stood silently...
Cleaning & Spraying. Letters now stream into "Readers' Exchange" at the rate of 1,000 a week, and Heloise is something of an island vogue. Last month, when the Advertiser gave a luncheon in her honor, 800 faithful readers bought tickets in advance. Heloise's column now appears in two mainland dailies. She has published a pamphlet of labor-saving household tips (the first edition of 5,000 sold out in three days), and is in steady demand as a lecturer. Still an inveterate hair sprayer, she has changed color at least nine times-including blue, purple and green...
...will grow like opening umbrellas. On their leading edges small "Kreuger flaps" will tilt outward, making the wing effectively thicker and giving it extra lift. Simultaneously, a strange structure will slide out of the wing's trailing edge. Segmented flaps will move backward and downward, deflecting the air stream sharply and adding still more lift. Filling the angle between wing and fuselage, the huge flaps will turn the wing into an almost perfect triangle with 25% more area than it has in high-speed flight and three times its normal lift...
