Much of U.S. Steel's recent activity bears the imprint of Ed Gott, who helped launch the modernization drive and has pressed for diversification. In replacing Blough, who will become a partner in the Manhattan law firm of White & Case, where he worked before joining U.S. Steel in 1942, Gott is naturally careful to give his predecessor proper credit. "We're only trying to complete what Blough started," he says. One of Gott's goals is to lift the company's share of the steel market back up to 30% within the next several years...

But softly, softly. R. V. Cassill, author of The President, is one of those happy few novelists who see sex as a vehicle rather than a destination and have the wit to take off something more than the heroine's clothes. Rodney Buckthorne is that ever popular fantasy figure, the artist in goat's clothing, who prances irresistibly through several marriages...
