Just north of the hi-fi jungle on Boylston St., the Wursthaus building sits in commercial effulgence, noisily crowing its own merits with pretentious signs, ornate flags and a smorgasbord-style window that is chock-full of brand-names. The decor is pretty much the same inside, and if you sit facing the wrong way, your meal will be highlighted by a neon ticker that tells you what you will want to masticate. The specialties at the Wursthaus are eastern European food and exotic beers from the world over, which all Harvard freshmen buy so they can have pretty rows...
...Rockefeller has exuberantly strewn New York State with his political largesse. Most of it has been beneficent (schools, hospitals, mass transit, antipollution facilities), but some has been dubious (his massive $1 billion concrete and marble Albany mall, which will rehouse much of the state government when it is completed hi 1975-five years late).

Consumers, borrowers, investors -no one could take encouragement from last week's economic news. Retail prices shot up hi July at a compound annual rate of 10%, a bit less than the June pace of 12.6%, but still frightening. Moreover, the apparent improvement was illusory: it resulted entirely from a drop in food that shortly will be reversed. The Agriculture Department said that retail food prices will jump anywhere from 3% to 7% by year...
