"We're not hostile to men," says manager and co-owner Carole Reeves. "We're just trying to put women first. Men's needs are catered to quite adequately in other hotels...

If the Federal Government permits the number of consumers to go up, presumably the price will come down...
...most damning -- and colorful -- evidence was on tape. In one casual exchange between Drexel's Bruce Newberg and Princeton/Newport partner Charles Zarzecki, the prosecution saw evidence that the co-defendants knew exactly what they were up to. Newberg teasingly calls Zarzecki "a sleaze bag." Zarzecki's retort: "You taught me, man." Replies Newberg: "Welcome to the world of being a sleaze...
