...President wants it, although he does, but because the people of Massachusetts need it,"--it becomes manifestly obvious that certain attributes of the older Kennedys are quite unnecessary to the success of EMK. As a man, Ted is handsome, vigorous and charming. As a politician, Ted has the glamor of JFK without the President's inhibitions and introspection. Ted strides through a factory slapping backs with the natural political zest, though not the warmth, of Nelson Rockefeller. Ted enjoys campaigning. Last May he told delegates to the State Convention, "A candidate can't expect support unless he asks...
...York City Sir: Your statement "Itek ... became [a] glamor stock even while . . . still operating in the red" [June 1] is not factual. Itek, founded in September 1957, initially had three profitable years, during which its sales moved from scratch to some $30 million per year, and during which it fully justified investor confidence.

...market, however good its "gross message," missed one major point: a company pioneering new fields, based on good new ideas and unique people, is worth "more than average."

But how long is it since TV has unearthed a new and glamorous femme star to slake the thirst of the aforementioned viewer in quest of relaxation? . . . Occasionally the sought-after glamor in the form of white tie, tails, ballroom scenes and pretty dolls will show up on a Garry Moore show or a Perry Como episode, but, by and large, whether...
Never noted for glamor, the humble potato has lost so much of its popularity with diet-conscious Americans that per capita spud consumption in the U.S. today is little more than half what it was 50 years ago. Nonetheless, at New York's Mercantile Exchange last week some of the most sophisticated speculators in U.S. business were in a lather over the future of the potato and betting millions of dollars on what it will cost by mid-May. Seldom has the U.S. commodity market seen so wide and adamant a split between bulls and bears...
