...ideal container for prodigal America is the edible ice cream cone. In this vein, there is now much talk about "bio-degradable" bottles and cans. But a container that would quickly dissolve when discarded or immersed in water has yet to hit the market. A Swedish firm, Rigello Pak A.B., claims preliminary success with a cardboard-encased, polyvinyl container that is being tested with beer. The company plans full production early next year. The Rigello bottle, though, does not actually dissolve. According to its makers, it can be crumpled easily for tidy discarding and eventually rots...
...promising new Supergroup so far is an English foursome called Blind Faith. Its members: Singer-Pianist-Guitarist Stevie Winwood, 21, formerly of Traffic; Bassist-Electric Violinist Rick Grech, 23, from Family; Guitarist Eric Clapton, 24, and Drummer Ginger Baker, 30, who were two-thirds of the rock trio called Cream, which broke up last fall.

...managed the program for the ballroom of the Century Plaza Hotel, summoning the Marine Drum and Bugle Corps from Washington, decreeing that a song be written and performed for the occasion.

...career civil servant who is now assistant director of the state's Department of Mental Hygiene and Correction. As a youth, Neil limited his social life mainly to school and church functions; when he went out with a girl it was usually on a double date to the ice-cream parlor. He played baritone horn in the school band. He studied hard, and while his teachers do not remember Armstrong as a particularly brilliant student, he impressed them all with the thorough, meticulous way he went about his work. Says Professor Paul E. Stanley, who taught Neil aerodynamics at Purdue...
William Esty Co. created Noxzema shave cream's famous TV ad, in which Gunilla Knutson whispers "Take it off, take it all off." Soon after that caught on, Young & Rubicam hired an actress with a throaty voice, just like Gunilla's, to implore, "Put it on, put it all on" -an appeal for customers to buy Plymouths and load them with all manner of optional equipment. Eagle Shirtmakers' color-naming contest of five years ago-in which the winning entries included Foreseeable Fuchsia, God's Little Ochre and Hot Chestnut-was revived this spring by Young...
