...menagerie of wild deer, turkeys, antelope and buffalo. In his paneled office, Lady Bird put up a 6-ft.-high balsam tree, speckled with colored lights and topped with a golden-haired angel in a blue brocade dress. The menu for Christmas dinner called for turkey, corn-bread dressing, string beans with almonds, sweet potatoes with marshmallow topping, rolls, cranberry salad, ambrosia and angel-food cake.

Sales of the regular Pontiac declined by 4,000, but the fancy Tempest increased 7,000, and the Grand Prix and GTO were also way up. The standard Ford slipped from 114,000 to 99,000, but Fairlane and Mustang both increased...
...have been ordered, and Boeing expects to sell some 400 over the next nine years. Along with more sales of its bread-and-butter 707s and tri-jet 727s, Boeing also picked up its first major Pentagon order since 1958. Under an initial $236 million contract, the company will develop and produce a nuclear-tipped SRAM (for short-range attack missile), a sort of son of Skybolt that can be launched from airborne bombers, guided to targets 100 miles away. SRAM may be worth $1 billion to Boeing eventually...
