...Dade County 16 months ago, when voters okayed a single "Metro" charter for Miami (pop. 290,000) and 25 satellite municipalities (see map). Urban experts and harassed civic leaders in other states looked up from desperate struggles with their common problem-how to develop unified plans and services throughout a central city and its independent suburbs-to pray for Metro's success.

Sleek and sturdy, white-hulled Columbia was clearly the fastest boat throughout the elimination trials to pick a defender for the America's Cup. Last week she won two of three races from 19-year-old Vim, her final opponent, and the selection committee judged Columbia the gem of the ocean, fit to meet Britain's Sceptre this weekend in the start of the four-out-of-seven series that will be raced alternately over triangular...
