...family-owned companies are larger than Sperry & Hutchinson, the biggest U.S. trading-stamp firm. And few company families combine salesmanship and scholarship quite like the Beineckes, who control S. & H. through marriage with the Sperrys (who bought out the co-founding Hutchinsons at the turn of the century). S. & H. President William S. (for Sperry) Beinecke, 49, who was trained in economics at Yale ('36) and in law at Columbia ('40), believes that businessmen must help finance the schools to keep new executives coming. His program for S. & H. includes employee classes in economics and the sponsorship...
...Spencer Tracy, 63, in his Los Angeles home, with a continuing respiratory ailment complicated by diabetes; Cincinnati Reds' Manager Fred Hutchinson, 44, in his physician brother's Seattle home, with a malignancy in an undisclosed area; Brendan Behan, 40, in Dublin's Meath Hospital, with pneumonia and head injuries after he was found lying in a pool of blood.

In violent opposition, Lord Sainsbury, boss of the big Sainsbury's grocery chain, is preparing to do bitter battle against the gum-backed invaders. In the first skirmish he cut the price of bread, but his chances of holding out are slim. In the U.S. even the mighty...
...past have often inspired outbursts of folk songs. Independence-minded folk singers of the 1730s wrote anti-British songs so "seditious" that Governor William Cosby of New York felt called upon to stage a public song burning. In the America that Walt Whitman heard singing, New Hampshire's Hutchinson Family drew abolitionist admirers like William Lloyd Garrison. Today's folk singers are lyrically lashing out at everything from nuclear fallout (What Have They Done to the Rain?) and the American Medical Association ("We really love to stitch/ The diseases of the rich"), to direct-digit dialing ("560 million...
