...Weathermen had no previous reports of such a formation. They looked up the records and found that this peculiar cloud had moved northeastward and raked Oklahoma with four tornadoes. When future weather satellites take to space, one mission will be to watch for clouds of this sort and warn against them before they start doing damage...
Stiff-lipped but studiously correct, Chancellor Raab got the final shocker at a hotel banquet in Klagenfurt. "Neutrality is no mountain fastness," Khrushchev warned. "The fight for peace concerns all people. The presence of rocket bases in northern Italy-and if they are used against the Socialist countries-would presuppose a violation of Austrian neutrality."

Pilot programs to do this are beginning, with A.M.A. backing, at Johns Hopkins, Indiana, Kansas...

To enplane, passengers simply walk along a short, level ramp into the aircraft's nose door. The umbrella roof keeps the weather away...

The Vatican newspaper, L'Osservatore Romano, ran a front-page editorial called "Firm Points" that obviously had high sanction. Although the editorial was specifically designed to warn Italian Christian Democrats against allying themselves with Marxist groups, its general implications obviously applied also to Kennedy...
