...succeeded by a remarkable trio of ex-reporters who established a highly personal, flamboyant p.r. style. One was Bernays, now 75 and retired, who thought like a eupeptic Machiavelli and talked like a psychology professor (his uncle, as he has never forgotten, was Sigmund Freud). The second was Benjamin Sonnenberg, now 65 and semiretired, a connoisseur both of power and pleasure who established himself in an antique-crammed house on Manhattan's Gramercy Park, where he could play his favorite game: making his clients feel they were doing well just to be seen with him. The third was Carl...
...young team with a young franchise in a young stadium surprises no one when it stands ninth in the league; the Houston Astros might even be tenth in the National League if it weren't for the New York Mets. What is surprising about the Astros is a trio of young play ers who are among baseball's best per formers so far this season. Rightfielder Rusty Staub, 23, a onetime bonus baby, is finally giving the Astros a neat re turn on their $100,000 investment: he ranks fourth in the league in batting with an average...
...multiple-screen technique is a favorite of Expo's moviemakers. Great Britain's most important film, produced by James Archibald and directed by Donald Levy, is also shown on three screens, although here the trio frequently function independently.

In fact, the film is little more than a series of violent images: arrows, acrobats, whirling lathes and ballet dancers, a time-lapse sunset, atomic explosions, water droplets in slow motion. Assaulted by three simultaneous images...
There is one place in France where Americans still have some clout: Le Mans. For a while, after a trio of U.S. Ford Mark 11s finished one-two-three in last year's 24 Hours of Le Mans, officials talked about changing the rules of the race - to require that cars go 30 laps between fueling stops (the Fords needed gas every 20 laps) and have room inside for four persons (the Mark 11s could barely squeeze in two). They changed their mind when Ford threatened to pull out of this year's race altogether, leaving the field...
...trio of Elis may add another few first places to the Harvard-Yale side. Captain Bob Greenlee, an All-East defensive tackle during the off-season, is the IC4A shot put champion (at 55 ft.). Hill, most likely, will sweep the broad jump (25 ft.) and triple jump 55 ft.). Young, the IC4A 440-yard dash champion, should win both...
