Martha Gerry bred Forego, as she does 95 per cent of her horses. The only real notable in Forego's bloodline is Whirlaway, who won the Triple Crown...
...frustrations bred by a sense of inequality remained dormant within the Arab community until Israel's 1967 military victory, which brought the Gaza Strip and the West Bank under Jerusalem's rule. The 19-year isolation of Israel's Arabs from the rest of the Middle East suddenly ended.

The loan was repaid within a year as Adolfo's well-bred, expensive (up to $775 for Chanel-type hand-knit suits) couture clothes caught on. American style, as he sees it, "is an aura of comfort, elegance and youth. It's a feeling." The feeling is shared by such customers as Betsy Bloomingdale, Nancy Reagan, Gloria Vanderbilt Cooper, Mrs. Ray Stark, Babe Paley and Mario Thomas, who helped build...
