...winnow the entries down to 41 finalists, the magazine first called on graduate students associated with NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center for preliminary flight trials. Then, last week, all was ready for the grand three-hour fly-off of the finalists in New York's cavernous Hall of Science, a building in Flushing Meadow left over from the 1964-65 World's Fair. To keep the competition equally fair, the neutral students were tapped again as launchers, and contestants were separated into nonprofessionals and professionals (subscribers or people employed in aviation). As the paper planes swooped...
...West Berlin TV station produced a three-hour documentary series on the country's efforts to stamp out what President Theodore Heuss had called West Germany's "unovercome" Nazi past. Dr. Martens, now a West Berlin surgeon of 71, was shown telling how he almost lost his head.

Inconspicuous as it was, Otto's return brought a shrill outcry from the Austrian Socialist Party, which sponsored a three-hour strike by some 250,000 Austrian production and office workers, and then blamed "the unrest caused by Otto Habsburg's provocative entry." The Socialists have long talked darkly of the "threat" of a Habsburg restoration, though even the Habsburgs themselves are not expecting a royal comeback. Otto was exiled at the age of six. In the early years, his proud and persistent mother, Zita of Bourbon-Parma, tried every scheme to regain Habsburg honors...
