...handle the arduous demands of the presidency. At 61, he weighs 203, only four pounds over his football-playing weight; he stays in shape by two daily 20-minute swims and occasional rounds of golf (scoring in the 90s). He limits lunch to a salad or cottage cheese with ketchup, though he occasionally succumbs to ice cream. No teetotaler, he likes to polish off a hard day's politicking with two or three dry martinis with a pair of olives in each. Ford's colleagues are astounded by his stamina. He has been known to fly to Denver after...
Corridors to Nowhere. At the space center in Houston, now renamed after Lyndon Johnson, the room where Neil Armstrong slept during his quarantine after man's first moon landing on July 21, 1969, has been turned into a commissary storeroom for ketchup and cookies. The massive lunar receiving laboratory, designed to analyze the 838 lbs. of rocks hauled back from the moon, has been dismantled and turned into a medical research laboratory.

He weighs 201 Ibs., just four more than during his football days at the University of Michigan, but admits that his weight has "shifted...
...fortnight ago, Halston made his biggest sale of all. For about $10 million in stock, New York's giant Norton Simon Inc., a $1.5 billion-a-year conglomerate with products ranging from ketchup to cosmetics, acquired Halston's business, his services as a designer and, most valuable of all, his name. Halston will now be free from the pressures of merchandising his wares and more able to exercise the fashion touch that has won him two Coty Awards (the fashion Oscar) and a clientele that includes Barbra Streisand, Mrs. Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis...
