...addition to operating 371 supermarkets across the U.S., Jewel now serves those needs with some 240 other outlets, ranging from ice-cream parlors and drugstores to huge "family centers" selling food, pharmaceuticals and phonographs. Such diversification has brought Jewel healthy profits while a number of more tradition-bound food chains have lagged. Last year Jewel's rapidly growing, non-supermarket operations yielded 24% of its $1.25 billion in sales, and an even bigger share of its $17.6 million in profits. Currently in the midst of a threeyear, $100 million expansion program, the company is adding new stores...
...George ("Shadow") Morton, 26, is so nicknamed because he is likely to excuse himself from a business conference, ostensibly to go to the men's room, and not be seen again for four days. Raised in Brooklyn, he had "about 40" jobs (bouncer, ice-cream vendor, hairdresser) before launching his record career in 1964 with a hit song that he wrote in twelve minutes (Walking in the Sand). Now he produces the Vanilla Fudge, the New York Rock & Roll Ensemble and Janis Ian (Society's Child), is training three protégés at his own commune...
...disease. But they cause such a maddening itch that anyone harboring them is invariably driven to a pharmacist or a doctor, no matter how embarrassing the visit may be.

There, wing to wing, were the great ones of World War I: the DeHavilland D.H.4 Eberhardt S.E. 5a, Nieuport 28, Pfalz D-XII and Fokker D-VII. And right near by sat a green and cream Sopwith Camel-the type that downed the Red Baron-with a cutout figure of that daredevil, Snoopy, as the Baron's fearless foe, everyone surely knows. The occasion: an auction of 29 veteran and vintage planes, from a tricycle-wheeled 1910 Parker Curtiss Pusher to such recent classics...
...Gold Coast is to the Gold Coast Valeteria, so the Harvard prank of yesterday is to the prank of today. The finely wrought practical joke of the past had the excitement of a shaving cream fight, the sophisticated delicacy of a neurosurgical operation, the cold reality of J. Edgar Hoover breathing down its neck, and usually a large dose of University Hall. The only remaining tradition in the hoax-and-dagger line is the stealing of the Lampoon lbis from its perch atop the Lampoon building...
