...automaker didn't keep its promise to limit the U.S. sales of its 1988 model M5 sedan to 500 cars. As a result, Stewart contends, the five-cylinder autos -- first introduced at $43,500 and later sold for $47,500 -- have failed to appreciate in value. Stewart, of Glen Ellyn, Ill., could be joined by other disgruntled M5 owners in the class-action suit, which alleges that BMW nearly tripled the number of cars in the edition. A BMW brochure stated that "only a fortunate few discriminating buyers will have the opportunity to own an M5. Production and distribution...

"Everybody wins!" he boomed two weeks ago, as he was announcing next year's recipients of some 50 college scholarships from his own imaginative, nonprofit enterprise. The organization, which he set up two years ago in Glen Ellyn, Ill., is called Assistance Ltd. Roskam, an industrial sales executive with a soft spot for small private colleges and young scholars looking for help, finds a school that needs equipment. Then he talks corporations into donating excess equipment as tax-deductible gifts. The colleges in turn arrange for scholarships equaling the value...
...hearing officer appointed to make a recommendation to the DEQE ruled that although nitrogen dioxide emission from MATEP could potentially cause as many as four lung cancer deaths over the plant's 40-year operating life, that's not an "unreasonable" risk. In fact, according to hearing officer Ellyn R. Weiss, a Washington, D.C., environmental lawyer who has handled the MATEP case since 1977, living under the plant's stack is no more dangerous than smoking 1.4 cigarettes a year for 20 years. The DEQE now has to review Weiss's report and comments from all parties, and is expected...
