Even the Preakness will not answer all the questions. Back in the barn at Aqueduct is a three-year-old colt named Dr. Fager, who won the mile-long Withers Stakes so easily last Saturday that he could have taken time out in the stretch run for a dip in the track's infield lake. Whichever horse wins the Preakness will eventually have to answer...
...year. Many investors had already discounted first-quarter setbacks and were buying in expectation of a strong year. General Motors gained $5.25 a share despite a 34.5% plunge in profits (see following story). Chrysler, which rose $2.63 two weeks ago in the face of a 71% profit dip, added another $1.75 last week to reach a 1967 peak of $44.25. When Du Pont reported a 24% profit decline two weeks ago, its shares jumped from $147 to $158.25; last week Du Pont traded as high as $167.50 before easing back to close...
Last week James IV, 20, made his Manhattan recital debut in a series imposingly titled "Great Performers at Philharmonic Hall." If Buswell is not quite ready for that adjective, his musicianship shows that he may soon be within reach of it. He is a devotee of the dip-and-sway school of playing, but he has temperament and spunk, a luminous tone and a controlled technique. Out of a contrasting assortment of half a dozen pieces, he delivered a fine, full-blooded performance of Bach's Sonata No. 4, blazed easily through the trickiest passages of Prokofiev...
...Housing, the great industrial invalid of 1966, has begun to recuperate (see following story). Retail sales have revived, partly because of an early Easter and strong March department-store sales but mostly because the U.S. consumer has replenished his savings and is spending again. Unemployment, in spite of a dip in the factory work week, has failed to increase, and, in the most reassuring indication of all, Ackley pointed out that "we have been encouraged by the apparent speed of the inventory adjustment, with accumulation actually falling to zero in February." The latest of the leading indicators for March verified...
Other hormone investigators took a different direction, concentrating on the rediscovered, though still not fully understood, powers of estrogen. From the fifth to the 20th day of a normal woman's cycle, her estrogen level is fairly steady, except for a dip at the time of ovulation. If they could prevent this dip, the researchers reasoned, they could prevent ovulation. They felt it would be more natural to do this by providing nothing but added estrogen until the 20th day, and then giving progestin only briefly. San Antonio Researcher Dr. Joseph W. Goldzieher worked with Syntex Laboratories to develop...
