Subway car wheels shift to plastic tires for quiet ride
Workers led by Walter Ruhel refurbish a Capitol subway car with plastic-tired wheels to quiet a noisy system that wore rails and rotted the old steel wheels. The plan aims to ease the screeching and bumpy experience since the January 1960 opening of the new Senate Office Building route.

A Laugh Goes a Long Way in Elder Humor
A column recounts how laughter lifts spirits, recalling Hedy, Diller, and a family listening in. It contrasts joyous home scenes with adult education programs in Los Angeles and New York, then highlights elderly perseverance via a Coney Island teacher and a 61-year-old student. It critiques stats on elder finances and pitches a booklet on financing retirement.
