...Mary I. Bunting, president of Radcliffe, has become the first woman elected to the boards of directors of Kaiser Foundation Hospitals and Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc., two non-profit corporations in Oakland, California...
Herbert Schnabel's tastes run to handmade gold cuff links. He drives a Soviet-built Chaika, the same make as Communist Chief Walter Ulbricht's. He probably earns about $125,000 a year (before stiff taxes) as president of Lucie Kaiser K.G., near Leipzig. East Germany's largest semiprivate women's fashion firm, it employs 370 workers, has annual sales of $3,000,000 and exports 65% of its product, for which Schnabel has won the Medal of the German Democratic Republic. Schnabel dates his prosperity from 1960 when, to raise capital for expansion, he sold...

A previous attempt to publish the notebooks got as far as three volumes, but was halted by World...

Kaiser Steel Corp. has spent $30 million on air-pollution control and $15 million on water-pollution control since it was established in 1942. Bethlehem Steel has earmarked 11% of its total capital expenditures for environmental control over the next five years...
...Lawyers for Sirhan Sirhan, Robert Kennedy's assassin, negotiated a contract with Writer Robert Kaiser. To help Kaiser cover the court proceeding, they agreed to assign him to the case as a "special investigator." This allowed him not only to interview Sirhan in his cell, but also to examine evidence before the trial and talk with court officers who were barred from discussing the case with other reporters. Given such access, Kaiser has produced a vividly detailed book-and Sirhan's 50% share of the royalties may well pay his legal costs...
