...meanwhile, provided an ideal vehicle for the concerto and complemented Chang's hard lustre perfectly; he can do things with a cello, as Harvard audiences must recognize by now, that have to be heard to be believed. In tandem, the duo created a rich, fiery texture, particularly in the frequent double-stopped passages which almost duplicated a string quartet sound...
...operating deficit of $400,000. That is not unusual for a new bank of First Women's small size (capital: less than $4 million). But the bank has also been beset by management problems that officers are reluctant to discuss publicly. Employees grumble that the troubles start with frequent policy disputes that divide the 12-member board of directors, which is headed by a Manhattan lawyer, Evelyn Lehman, and includes four men.

"Sometimes he would give a breakfast speech and then fly to Washington for a crucial vote and return for an evening meeting," recalls Maury DeJonge, a newspaperman who has covered Ford for many years. Many summers Ford spent two weeks crisscrossing his district in a trailer to talk with home folks. He was regarded as an effective Congressman, though he seldom bagged rich federal projects for his district. His straight-shooting constituents would have...
