Shoppers of both sexes are crowding into Sears' 820 stores this Christmas for everything from brand names like Sony and Timberland to newly stylish private labels such as Canyon River Blues denims and Circle of Beauty lipsticks...

To stock the shelves, new merchandising chief Robert Mettler, recruited from Robinson's, brought in popular national brands such as Champion, Arrow and B.U.M. and launched fashionable Sears-designed garments (imagine!) such as the Canyon River Blues and Crossroads casual wear lines.

And with friends like Newt, Dole couldn't really afford enemies. All those double-date press conferences during the budget negotiations looked like a buddy movie with Newt the star and Dole the sidekick. If Newt were really Dole's friend, he wouldn't be running around the country swinging a plastic bucket to symbolize all the money the revolution saved on congressional ice deliveries while his standard-bearer...
