...same time, Bachelor Trudeau set out to shed his image as a carefree ladies' man and swinger. "I expect to start mounting some opposition to my former self," he said. "I will not be the Pierre Elliott Trudeau I used to be." The demands of his new job will see to that. Rather than leggy young women, he suddenly found himself surrounded by burly bodyguards. Instead of driving his powder blue Mercedes, he is now being chauffeured in a Chevrolet. And at week's end, forgoing the usual victory parties, he went into seclusion "somewhere on the continent...
...attractive, wealthy intellectual and bon vivant who zips around in a Mercedes 300 SL sports car and goes in for strenuous sports (skin diving, skiing, brown belt in judo).

Last week, outfitted with a new set of irons, Murphy won $2,100 in the Doral Open and announced: "I'm playing with more ease every week...
...Bachelor Trudeau drives a fast sports car, skis, skindives, holds a judo brown belt and dresses in a highly individualistic style; he was once reprimanded by ex-Prime Minister John Diefenbaker for wearing a sports shirt and ascot in Parliament. But he is also a widely traveled law professor and economist and -very important-a bilingual Québecois who gets along as well at the mannerly teas of the English-speaking majority as at mercurial political rallies in Quebec and Montreal.
