Warning Shot. After Flight 85 left Los Angeles, Stewardess Tanya Novacoff saw Minichiello fiddling with something under his seat. "Oh, I'm putting together a fishing rod," he explained. The fishing rod was the carbine, and a few minutes later Stewardess Charlene Delmonico was marching up to the cockpit in front of Minichiello with the weapon in her back. "I mean business," said Minichiello...
...Journal to trumpet the news. The ad summed up a situation that has been gradually cooking in the Pennsylvania Dutch hills along with the ovens full of African cocoa beans: Hershey is becoming more than a candymaker.

Then suddenly the room was filled with 445 stylish, milling guests and the music of Meyer Davis' orchestra. And dancing among them, smiling, shy and lovely, was the person it was all about-Anne...
...Charge. Unable to give a party for Charlotte, Henry Ford II wanted to live up to a promise. "When my girls get married," he had said when they were young, "the whole world will know." And so he engaged Delmonico's and invited both old Ford friends and the jet-set society in which his daughters had been circulating since they moved from Grosse Pointe to live with their mother in New York. The crowd ranged from Mrs. Mary Lasker to Baby Jane Holzer, included such luminaries as Ceezee and Winston Guest, the Winston Churchills III, Truman Capote...
