...OUTFIELD--The Yankees are superior up front but in baseball it is not necessarily what's up front that counts. Not when the Giants have Felipe Alou, Harvey Kuenn, and Willie Mays on the outfield grass. Despite his tendency to hit home runs now and then, (and this year it has been mostly then) Roger Maris is not quite as impressive as Alou. Don't get me wrong. Maris has problems, scowis at little kids, slugs reporters, is a nice guy off the field, ahaven expertly, and occasionally wins ball games, but unless he is hot, he can be awfully...
...Harvey D. Woods, director of athletics at Fairleigh Dickinson and chairman of the ECAC eligibility committee, told the CRIMSON yesterday that the Ivy League had failed to keep the ECAC posted on the status of Kinasewich's eligibility, and therefore the Sports Illustrated article was the first mention the committee had seen of his case...
Such free-swinging expansion has been the rule at Harvey's since burly George McWatters became chairman in 1956.

To increase sales, he has opened wineshops in British department stores, bought up 60 small liquor shops, and opened a restaurant in Bristol with a wine card listing...

Now wine buyers are mostly a modest lot who purchase a few bottles at a time. But there are more of them. Harvey's today exports to 130 countries. Its Bristol Cream, Milk and Dry have one-third of the growing sherry market in the U.S. (where most people assume that Harvey's sells nothing else...
...told, McWatters has boosted Harvey's sales 117% in three years, last year increased its pre-tax profit to $2.500,000. And he has only started. In a move that really will infuriate the Bordeaux wine sellers, Harvey's is planning to move heavily into the European market, ship many of its clarets. Burgundies, hocks, Moselles and champagne right back to the countries that originally produced them...
