...Khrushchev and his deputy, Frol Kozlov, are the only top Communists who are able to get through to the people across the extraordinary gap of class distinction that separates the Communist hierarchy from the people. Communist leadership in general has failed to develop any enthusiasm or support for the system itself; this lack of enthusiasm does not promise incipient revolution, but does promise minds receptive to logical Western argument...
After tracing the development of American theatre, from its Victorian basis through reforms by O'Neill until the emergence of the Group Theatre, Whitehead talked specifically about the modern American theatre and the Lincoln Square Theatre. Modern theatre, Whitehead believes, will develop new techniques, greater ranges, and more imagination in choices of topics and presentations during the next decade--if limitations are not imposed. During the past, natural talent supported the theatre; today, it is necessary to create a new heritage and tradition...
Jamal studied piano privately, was sitting in with touring jazz groups as a sideman by the time he was eleven, had his own trio when he was 21. He has since composed (Seleritus, Ahmad's Blues) as well as performed. He did not develop his distinctively understated style until after his conversion, which, he feels, gave him the necessary "inner peace of mind" to play as he does...
...product of a small British company that grew out of a garage started in 1919 by Charles Newton Cooper in Surbiton, eleven miles southwest of London. After World War II, Cooper and his son John, an intense, black-haired designer-engineer, got the speed bug and set out to develop a small, cheap racing car powered by a motorcycle engine. Gradually the cars grew faster, but they still used largely hand-me-down engines. At one point the Coopers used a four-cylinder Coventry Climax engine originally designed to pump water for fire fighters. Rebored and rebuilt, the engine finally...
Sonic control has many possibilities besides smoothing the pressure curve of burning fuel. It may develop into a way to program the complete flight of a solid-propellant missile. Shifting sound levels could vary the thrust to give the rocket better maneuvering capabilities; fuel might also be compounded that does not burn at all unless the rocket's cavity is filled with powerful sound, thus accomplishing total cutoff with the whistle. The big spaceships that NASA plans to toss into space will use clusters of rocket engines. If they are solid fueled and equipped with whistles, they could...
