...well as expected. Some institutional managers figure that if money goes up 100% in one stock, it does not rise as much as if they had bought five stocks successively and sold each one when it advanced 20%. Had they done the latter, they would be starting from a bigger base each time, and the money would appreciate...
...Publisher S. I. Newhouse Jr., Manhattan Decorator Billy Baldwin not only covered the hassocks with suede but even turned a pack of scavenging jackals into a luxurious rug. Busy patterns, thinks Bloomingdale's Interior Design Chief David Bell, will be increasingly used to make small apartment rooms appear bigger through trompe-l'oeil. At the moment, the most popular style of furniture, at least in the mass market, is Early American, but a change may be in the wind.

With such talents, Bing is inevitably in position...
...current $875,000 a year. By telescoping Rollei's normal seven-year development period to two years, in 1966 the company was ready with two new cameras, which now account for half its sales. One of the cameras, a 35-mm. model priced at $190 and not much bigger than a pack of king-size cigarettes, has endeared itself to the pros who, as Peesel says, can "carry it even in white tie and tails." Though the new, highly sophisticated SL 66 was designed for professionals, its relatively high cost ($995) has not prevented it from winning big sales...
