Employees at S. S. Kresge Co. say that their founder has always "looked at money as a tool," and there is no doubt that Sebastian Spering Kresge has used dimes as crowbars. When he was in formed years ago that his variety-store chain had reached sales of $10 million, he noted that the sum was "100 million dimes." Closely watching the pennies as well, Kresge insisted that he "never spent more than 300 for lunch in my life," and admitted giving up golf out of fear of losing too many golf balls.

It has cast new doubt on whether "vertical" combines (with a supplier or customer) will survive a court test. Only for "conglomerate" mergers (between companies in unrelated lines of business) does the legal path remain relatively unblocked. That is the path that businessmen are now following. About 70% of last year...
...store of one-line gags that often sound like a prelude to a friendly word from his sponsor. As Hope's mop-topped maid, Phyllis cleans up the house, dirties up the jokes, and delivers her own brand of kitcheny self-deprecation. There is never the slightest doubt that her next job will be a sell-out nightclub engagement in Vegas, and any viewer who thinks that's funny may be able to swallow the whole wretched show...
