...rejected as unfit economically or politically to join this band of continental brothers because it 1) is an offshore island, and 2) has "special ties" with the U.S. and the Commonwealth. To De Gaulle's jaundiced eye. the British attempt to enter the Common Market was simply a Trojan horse maneuver (an expression used with suspicious frequency in Parisian editorials and salons last week) staged by Washington to make sure that the U.S. domination of Europe would not be frustrated...
After only 5½ minutes, with a fourth down on the Wisconsin 13, U.S.C. Coach John McKay sprang a clever trap on the Badgers, who were playing a man-to-man pass defense. Trojan Tackle Ron Butcher came scurrying on field with a rarely used play. "IG84-weak tackle look," Quarterback Beathard muttered in the huddle. The Trojans lined up over the ball-and, way out on the right wing, a U.S.C. back casually stepped up into the line. At the same instant. Left End Bedsole took a step backward, thereby making Tackle Butcher a legal pass receiver-for that...
Each of these upholstered Trojan horses costs a staggering $232,000 and carries 90 passengers. It takes two to fill up a giant jet. Dulles will have 20 of them. In disembarking at Dulles, travelers will go through a reverse process, but the lounge does not have to be turned around: it can be driven, pushme-pullyou fashion, from either end.

During that time, each of the directors is forced to reveal to President Julian Armstone (Joseph Cotten) that he has a motive for being the raider's well-paid Trojan horseman. These revelations are not so much jolting glimpses of human frailty as they are dismaying exposures of gimcrack theatrical carpentry. The motive of the raider (Gerald S. O'Loughlin) is typically yawn-provoking. As a youngster he waited on table for "polite boys" in button-down collars, and has venomously turned the tables ever since. Hero Cotten is a kind of airborne Hamlet who has always eluded...
...some chilly fall weekend to come, but keyed-up fans are making the most of it while it lasts. "Who's No. 1?-We're No. 1," chanted the U.C.L.A. cheering section with pardonable delirium. Southern Cal alumni happily compared their 1962 squad to the great Trojan teams of the '40s. And up in Seattle, Husky Stadium rocked to the fervent strains of Heaven Help the Foes of Washington. "I've never seen anything like it," said a Purdue official just before the Boilermakers took the field against Washington. "These people are actually feeling sorry...
