...Charlotte Ford Niarchos," she wrote in her first column, "has been schlepping around the Greek islands with her ex-husband, Tanker King Stavros Niarchos, on his yacht Creole. This has been the most romantic divorce. Remember how sticky it was when they were married? Charlotte hardly ever saw Stavros, and the only thing she had to remember him by was her 61-carat diamond ring-and the baby, of course...
...will offer $28,000 next year; its 548 full professors average $20,000. And teachers take it for granted that the average will go even higher. "The senior faculty members expect a review of their salaries every year," complains Harvard's Arts and Sciences Dean Franklin Ford. "No one seems to remember back in the '30s, when it was every four or five years." Also on the rise are college payrolls for nonteaching services. At Kalamazoo College, for example, janitorial salaries have climbed 40% in the past five years-and no one, ruefully notes Columbia's Kirk...
...Convince the Donor. The campus quest for money is so pressing that academic administrators today spend most of their time in hot pursuit of potential donors.

With Chrysler again advancing (though General Motors slipped slightly), overall industry sales in early June were 4% better than last year's pace. Said Ford Division General Manager M. S. McLaughlin: "This is the turn...
...television becoming so important, there is a greater chance for people experienced in these fields to rise to the top." Seymour's top is a pretty lofty place. J. Walter Thompson has worldwide billings of $558 million, and its list of clients reads like a blue book: Ford Motors, Liggett & Myers, RCA, Pan American, Eastman Kodak, Irving Trust Co., Scott Paper, Kraft Foods. So solid is the agency's work that some clients have been with it for generations. Libby, McNeill & Libby has been a customer since 1897, and Lever Bros, appeared...
