...Reagan staff still appears to be quite strong. Campaign Manager John Sears is building a national organization and concentrating on those "first wave" states that will hold primaries or caucuses before April 1. The goal of Finance Director Michael Deaver is to raise a $12 million campaign fund by June...
Pension fund managers, struggling to keep their pots of money intact, have begun to look beyond the blue chip stocks and bonds in which they have traditionally invested. In June the Government eased the rule limiting pension fund investments to only those that a "prudent man" would make. Now pension funds can invest in real estate or gold or even Picassos and Chinese porcelain.

In July more than 800 out of 6,300 flights were either late or scrubbed because of bad weather...

For years the network had taken care to soothe Carson, and Senior Vice President Dave Tebet provided him with champagne, flowers, limousines and all the other things a supercharged ego needs. Tebet left in the reshuffle after Silverman took over, and the Dom Perignon was forgotten. Carson was further annoyed when the new president, in an appearance on his anniversary show, was tongue-tied on-camera. He was infuriated when Silverman later prodded him publicly to appear on the show more often...
