The nearest town is huts and ruts. The local night life is limited to a single soda fountain of soul-searing fluorescence. After three weeks in this hell, the miserable welder imagines home as heaven and his fiancée (Anna Canzi) as an angel. When she sends him a letter, he greets it like an annunciation.

Pepsi's Kendall, a husky, hard-working onetime fountain-syrup salesman who tripled sales and quintupled profits in six years as Pepsi's international president, has much in common with Coca-Cola's President J. Paul Austin, who took over his company last year. Both have Southern ties: Kendall was a football tackle for Western Kentucky State College; Austin spent his early youth in LaGrange, Ga., before moving up to Harvard Law School. Both are unusually young to head major corporations: Kendall is 42, Austin 48. Both advanced up the corporate ladder through the export division...
