Onassis, say associates in Athens, promised Jackie both his villa on the French Riviera and a hacienda in Mexico. But Christina will surely take over the family's regal penthouse on Avenue Foch in Paris and the 500-acre Skorpiós; the day after the funeral, she took command of the 325-ft. yacht that bears her name by informing the captain and crew that their jobs were all secure...
...Mystery. Last week Onassis was once more the focus of international speculation. Amid reports that he was gravely ill-perhaps even near death-he was flown from Athens to Paris aboard an Olympic Airways Learjet specially outfitted with medical equipment. After resting for a night at his Avenue Foch apartment near the Arc de Triomphe, Onassis checked into the American Hospital in suburban Neuilly, managing to slip unobserved through the hospital's rear door.

Even more peripatetic than Jackie, he caroms around the world carrying only a battered attaché case and a gold-embossed red leather appointment book. Duplicate sets of clothing await him at his pieds-à-terre in Paris (on the Avenue Foch), London (Claridge's), Montevideo, Athens and Manhattan (the Pierre). Under his ownership, Olympic Airways?on which he holds a charter from the Greek government until A.D. 2004?is an ever-ready magic carpet...
