Robbins' young troupe (average age: 24) reached London midway in a four-month State Department-sponsored tour of Europe and Israel; so far, the troupe has attracted capacity crowds everywhere from Salzburg to Athens. Fortnight ago, performing without costumes or sets (lost in a plane crash), Robbins & Co. proved to be the hit of the Edinburgh Festival.

Big Chet Boulris showed bursts of power and speed that would carry him five yards with two tacklers hanging on grimly; he scored the Crimson's third touchdown on a dive through left tackle midway through the second period...
...seismograph records for similar earthquake centers in unsounded parts of the oceans. By last week the Lamont men could trace the cracks 40,000 miles clear around the earth (see map). As in the Atlantic, the cracks generally follow the tops of rises in the ocean bottom.
