...Tarnish. Westmoreland's other chief enterprise is running a five-man operation known as the Governor's Task Force for Economic Growth, a $25,000-a-year post to which he was named in 1972 by Governor John West. It calls for Westmoreland to handle a wide variety of projects aimed at expanding the state's business and industry, from promoting its tourist attractions to Canadians, to seeking investment capital from visiting Japanese businessmen, to spreading the word to farmers about new agricultural methods. As usual, the general is double-timing on his new job. Driving alone...
...wife Carol and seven children: his share in Salomon's profits by the time he left was estimated at $2,000,000 to $3,000,000 a year (much of which he had to reinvest in the business under a company rule). His move to the $42,500-a-year Treasury job must have involved one of the biggest income reductions ever taken by anyone to come to Washington...

Last week Kerkorian lost what the money men would call a highly visible asset: James T. Aubrey Jr., MGM's $208,000-a-year president. Aubrey, 54, will be replaced as president by Frank E. Rosenfelt, 51, a longtime MGM executive, and as chief executive by Kerkorian himself...
...manner is brisk and candid. Her taste in clothes runs to blazers and tweed skirts with knee socks and "sensible" shoes. A sturdy, affable spinster of 59, Dixy Lee Ray lives in an 8-ft.-by-28-ft. motor home that belies her $42,500-a-year salary. She parks it somewhere in rural Virginia-commuting to work by chauffeured limousine-but she keeps its exact location a secret; she has been forced to move once because of county ordinances against trailers. Wherever she goes, her miniature poodle and huge, shaggy Scottish deerhound go too. They have welcomed, and startled...
