Early Warnings. After the war, Maggie moved to Washington, D.C., where she gave up the grind of daily reporting for the more leisurely life of a roving reporter and pundit. She lived in an elegant town house with her husband, Lieut. General William Hall (her first marriage to Philosophy Professor Stanley Moore ended in divorce in 1948), raised two children and cultivated an impressive list of sources. In 1963, she left the Trib to become a columnist for Newsday. She knew how to take a cool, levelheaded look at world affairs, and she disdained those commentators who were addicted...
...Mikado, in Tokyo's swank Akasaka District. Run by a Korean "cabaret king" named Yoshiaki Konami, 54, the Mikado boasts an electric eye to open the door, a "dancing" West German water fountain, 1,250 hostesses in evening dress or kimono, and 30 Japanese Rockettes who bump and grind through Papa Don't Preach to Me in top hat and tails.

Crammed into submarine-tight quarters at night, buffeted by wind and wave, 36 men worked in staggered shifts, 20 hours a day, seven days a week, to keep the drill boring slowly into the sea floor beneath. Last week the punishing grind paid off: the rig's owner, Continental Oil Co. of England (a subsidiary of the U.S.'s Conoco), struck a promising, 64-ft.-thick pocket of natural gas that is yielding...
During the lively late show at London's newest nightclub, underdressed chorus girls grind in the naughtiest Memphis manner while patrons dine on smoked salmon and chicken à la Maryland. Called "Showboat" and located in the Strand, the club is so popular that it is booked solid on weekends through New Year's. The most extraordinary fact about it, however, is its owner: London's J. Lyons & Co., Ltd., known to Britons for years as the conservative proprietor of 170 staid, gold-and-white-fronted teahouses scattered through their country...
