Nine miles off Alaska's Kachemak Bay, Skipper Gene Cameron and his two crewmen maneuvered the 40-ft. Kathy C. along a string of buoys and hauled crab pots, one at a time, from the bottom, 100 ft. below. By day's end, the trawler's tanks were crawling with 6,624 lbs. of Alaskan king crab, which were promptly delivered to a Wakefield Seafoods, Inc., processing plant. Such pickings, by Kathy C. and a fleet of 40 other crabbers, have made Wakefield's founder, Lowell Wakefield, the leader of the fastest-growing segment...
...proposed by the competition-winning architectural firm of Kelly & Gruzen: bury the facilities underground. Key elements in the $5,700,000 scheme, which will leave 95% of the ten-acre site still land scaped: below-ground-level stables for 370 horses topped by a three-acre orchard of flowering crab apple trees, and a sloping earth mound 400 ft. wide and 30 ft. high with an indoor riding ring beneath and an outdoor ring...

When the band struck up Hello, Dolly!, the President loped out onto the marble floor with Imelda while guests scrambled atop chairs and tables for a better view.
