...from a record-like platter onto the screen of any home television set. Next week, RCA Corp. will unleash an avalanche of advertising to launch its version, called Selecta Vision. RCA has spent more than $150 million during the past 15 years to develop Selecta Vision, and it will invest another $20 million more before the end of the year to promote...
Profitability is the bottom line of that performance. The Coop's sales last year totaled more than $37 million, and its members received a 9.5-per-cent rebate on their purchases.

Finally, we must tap the unused resource of millions of able-bodied Americans who cannot find work. Government and industry must work together to provide training, not for "make-work...
...equal the job she lost at Bendix. Agee had made her his top assistant in charge of planning the corporation's intended metamorphosis from a staid manufacturing and natural resources concern into a high-technology conglomerate. Seagram has a task of similar magnitude: it must invest the $2.3 billion that it reaped last year from the sale of its U.S. oil and gas properties. But Cunningham will not be directly involved in this enterprise...
