...miles up, where the air is thin and cold, a fearful wind zigzags round the earth at 200 m.p.h. Meteorologists call it the "jet stream." Last week, at Asbury Park, N.J., a convention of the International Air Transport Association considered the jet stream and the effect it will have on the operation of the high-flying airliners of the future...

...crew of his special train banded themselves into a "Sad Symphony" of toy ukuleles, kazoos and slide whistles to play satiric take-offs on Wagner, Kabalevsky and Sousa. A waiter sang Ol' Man River and a porters' quartet turned to on Down by the Old Mill Stream, Finally, at his musicians' urging, the 83-year-old little perfectionist stood up to conduct them himself in shirtsleeves and beret.

When a story...

...country for Easter picnics, saw the Castilian plateau in an almost forgotten dress. Since 1942 central Spain has been brown and barren with drought. Last week the plain was alive with white and yellow flowers; trees that had seemed dead last summer were budding again, and water sparkled in stream beds dry for years. But even looking at the unaccustomed softness of the land, Spaniards could not put aside their apprehensions. Their government was spending its last gold reserves for wheat.
