Carl Ally Inc. started a campaign late last year for Northeast Airlines, using the slogan"Northeast addresses itself to the whole man." Ads showed a beaming passenger, comfortably pil lowed and covered with furry blanket, addressing himself to martini, steak and a copy of Realties. In April, Gehnrich Associates kicked off a campaign for RCA Global Communications, aiming to get across the point that a businessman can often save himself an over seas trip by sending a telex message instead.

Just before disbanding, Cream said goodbye with this album. It is the cream of their crop...

Some official put a horse blanket over me and walked me to the Pru escalator and asked me if I was all right. I gave him the reassuring nod and went up the escalator.
