...father of the compact car got up and dressed at 6 a.m. Usually he takes a prebreakfast jog around the grounds of suburban Detroit's Bloomfield Hills Country Club, which is adjacent to his $150,000 contemporary home. At the very least, he plays a fast game of "compact golf"-six holes, three balls. But on this particular morning, he and his wife Lenore hurried over to the polling place-to vote for George Wilcken Romney, 55, Republican candidate for Governor of Michigan.

Now the spring selling season begins...
...Before he announced his gubernatorial candidacy last week, he fasted for 24 hours in prayerful consideration. A physical-fitness bug, he arises each morning at 5, jogs for a mile or so in a sweatsuit or bangs golf balls around the country club adjoining his $150,000 house in Bloomfield Hills, a Detroit suburb. Because of the many irons he has in the fire, Romney has little time to spend with his attractive family (the Romneys have four children, five grandchildren). To catch up on sleep, he often catnaps in the fold-back bed of his chauffeur-driven Rambler...
