...line, other final construction work has already been slowed by blizzards and sporadic work stoppages. As a result, concedes Darch, "we are not going to meet our goal of putting oil into the line next May." But "with a little luck," he insists, the oil will start to flow by the end of June, enabling Alyeska to begin loading tankers at the ice-free port of Valdez almost on schedule...
West Coast Glut. Meanwhile, another problem looms: What to do with the oil when it finally begins to flow? Incredibly, that question has still not been resolved. About half the crude in Prudhoe Bay is owned by Standard Oil of Ohio, in partnership with British Petroleum. It is scheduled to be shipped by tanker from Valdez to California. But Cleveland-based Sohio has no marketing outlets on the West Coast; it wants to unload its oil at Long Beach, Calif., and move it to its territory in the Midwest through a 200-mile pipeline to be built across southern California...

Among the standard themes in the current crop of self-help manuals...
Today MacDougall presides over what he calls "an instant ad agency" located in a Manhattan penthouse. Out of four editing rooms flow dozens of 1-min. and 5-min. TV "documentaries." Says MacDougall: "We hope to present our case so simply that nothing will be talked about as an advertisement. The less memory of slickness left in people's minds, the more we will have accomplished." Example of MacDougall's unslick touch: Ford never wears makeup. One 5-min. piece is a biography of the President, stressing his command positions, from Eagle Scout to football captain to House...
