...roll hits. Signs sometimes read: "Age Limit: 24 for Men, 21 for Women." Once the word is passed by the powder-room tom-toms that a particular hangout has become "a nice place to meet people," the rush is on. "After that," says Don Hogan, 39, manager of Denver's Piccadilly, "it all depends on what they work out together-kind of like electrolysis...
Fast Rise. Even in the vast and fast-growing mutual-fund business, the swaps have had a remarkable rise. The first was organized less than seven years ago by Denver Banker William M.B. Berger, 41, who had the bright-and right-idea that Section 351 (a), which had been drawn to allow the tax-free transfers of property to a new corporation in exchange for stock, could also apply to individual stockholders.

He came up through a brief career as a barnstorming pilot and, after that, as a project engineer at the Glenn L. Martin Co., then started his own plant at the St. Louis airport with $165,000 in savings and money borrowed from, among others, Laurance Rockefeller. Gaining experience and financial strength as a subcontractor on such planes as the DC-3, McDonnell eventually designed and built his own, convinced the Navy that it could fly faster and perform...
