...summer suburbs of Stuttgart. Many buy land abroad in order to dispose of "black capital," as they call unreported income. Others frankly seek out areas that German real estate ads describe as "far from any crisis zone." One house hunter in County Galway wanted to know the prevailing wind. Told that it comes from the southwest, he beamed: "Good. It crosses 3,000 miles of sea. No atomic dust."

The setting is comfortable enough for the local colony, for whom it is a kind of family club and also affords a perfect stage for starlets or would-be starlets...
After a cautious first quarter, Penn altered its defensive posture. Working with the wind, the Quakers overloaded their attacking line for the power play. When a long kick skidded past the Harvard fullback, halfbacks Johann Stein and Peter. Humbert moved the ball toward the goal. Stein took a shot, and scored. Five minutes later, Humbert got his turn on a similar power play, and made it 2-0 Penn...
