...wanted anything to do with Mahoney. He only polled 30 per cent of the vote. It was all some mean trick. For two months before the election Sickles and Machine Man Thomas B. Finan bitterly fought each other. The primary, despite its eight candidates, was supposed to be a two-man battle. And all of a sudden this racist Mahoney turns up the winner. It just wasn't fair...
...North American finals-and lost each time. "It gets under your skin," he said. Now it looked like it might stay there. Early in the sixth race, he seemed hopelessly behind McNamara. But a wind shift caught McNamara unawares and then, rounding the first mark, the Bostonian and his two-man crew somehow committed the neophyte's gaffe of letting their spinnaker whip into an hourglass snarl. They took 1 min. 30 sec. to unfoul it, and limped in seventh to Cox's sixth. That put Cox only H points behind, 39|-381, and he poured...
...them with an ample lift. Last week at the N.A.R. meet, experts from NASA, the Army and the Air Force were recruited to judge such sophisticated craft as a model Gemini-Titan constructed (in a total of 300 man-hours) on a 1-to-48 scale, complete with a two-man capsule. Sixteen-year-old Albert Kirchner of Bethpage, N.Y., woomphed off a three-stage Little Joe II-Apollo test vehicle that cost him 200 hours of labor. A few pioneers are even sending aloft mice and grasshoppers, which successfully parachute back to earth at the end of the ride...
Swinging Wing. The TFX-now known officially as the F-111-is something of a pioneer aircraft. The two-man, 1,650-m.p.h. plane is equipped with the world's first afterburning turbofan engines, has a revolutionary swing-wing-the sort envisioned in one of the designs for the nation's first commercial supersonic transport. The wing, which is crucial to the multipurpose role planned for the TFX, enables the plane, in effect, to redesign itself in flight. The plane sweeps back its wings in a dartlike configuration for supersonic flight, extends them to full span to slow...
...two-man orchestra consisting of tympany and vibraphone plays an effective, fortunately not over-used score by Michael Tschudin. Tschudin's music contributes significantly to the ectasy of the Bacchae, but the score also gives an over-all continuity to the production...
