...chew for refreshment. With their strong cola sales, front-running Coca-Cola and runner-up PepsiCo have long dominated the soda-pop industry. Lacking a popular cola contender, Canada Dry Corp. has run a poor third despite its lead in ginger ale. Now, in a move to put more fizz in its fortunes, the company has brought out a new variety of cola drink that is 99% caffeine-free...
Soon Dayton was bursting with ballyhoo. Local stores sold bales of cotton apes and bundles of buttons proclaiming "Your Old Man's a Monkey." Robinson's drugstore featured a "Monkey Fizz." The town's only hostelry, the Hotel Aqua, raised its rates to $8 a 'day, and soapboxes sprouted on every corner.

O'Hara's career did not last very long; some client newspapers dropped him, and Newsday itself did not renew his contract after 53 weeks...

Chanel showed suits, Grès had a tent-shaped evening gown, St. Laurent showed exaggerated sailor suits and transparent organza dresses. But after Rome, it all seemed flat until Barbra Streisand, Broadway's freewheeling funny girl, showed up on her first trip abroad to add some zing and zest to the proceedings...
