ACCORDING TO THE little red HSA handbook, there are several ways to make money at Harvard. The easiest scheme, as a former HSA president and two close friends from the Pudding have now proven, is publishing a book. Call it the "definitive insiders' guide" to the Ivy League, chock it full of nifty alumni picnic stories, throw in artsy unfocused pictures of preppies drinking beer in Harvard stadium and hippies standing around looking high, slide it into a glossy cover with Ivy school emblems that look like ski patches, and wait for the money to roll...
...ISOLATION of Morningside Heights from the rest of New York begins on the IRT run uptown. All of the white-faced Columbia boys get off at 96th Street to board the Broadway local: three stops to Riverside Church and its hunchback bells, to the Chock Full O'Nuts, to Riverside Park Juilliard.

...Godard's Masculin-Feminine in discussing the making of movies, some very elementary metaphysics, and the old illusion-vs.-reality bit. I didn't like it, but that's between me and my generally perverse taste; at least it was the film Parker wanted to make, plainly personal and chock full of substance.

...Consolidated Foods Corp., the huge Chicago-based food processor and distributor, hopes to double its sales to $2 billion by 1975, is hungry for acquisitions to help it reach that goal. The latest possibility: New York-based Chock Full O'Nuts, a coffee-processing and luncheonette-chain operation (1966 sales: $48 million), which is holding merger talks with Consolidated. - Control Data Corp., a leading manufacturer of computer hardware, agreed to take over a well-matched mate: C-E-I-R Inc., a $22 million-a-year, Washington-based computer software outfit that provides data-processing services. Like much...
Rarely has the Los Angeles County Museum been so thoroughly occupied as it was last week. Two floors of its Special Exhibitions Gallery, plus three outdoor plazas, were chock full of sculpture. In all, 166 pieces by 80 artists have been assembled by Modern Art Curator Maurice Tuchman for a mammoth exhibition: "American Sculpture of the Sixties." Whatever space was left over was taken up by Angelenos. On the first three days, more than 10,000 adults (not counting their children) milled up the steps from Wilshire Boulevard, past the bouncing Calder Hello Girls and the spikelike Rickey...
