...Great Plague, Gitter's creation is compelling and convincingly pragmatic. Jones as Everyman holds the center of attention firmly, but much of the first act could be played with less method intensity, more of the light farce Mayer is wont to introduce on occasion. Last night, Iver's tightly-knit band, his stylized compositions and arrangements, and extraordinary singer George Leh, came as close to stealing a show as anybody comes working with Mayer...
...designers these days trend more to mass-market ready-to-wears, known as prét à porter-and to more pants, more boots, more chains, more turtlenecks and, of course, more transparency. For his fall collection, André Courrèges' main excitement was a white, rib-knit jump suit, with a tunic for daytime wear and a sequined pants outfit with see-through top for after dark.

In his 1968 collection, he compromises slightly by using see-through vinyl to hold together the tops and bottoms of his bathing suits. He says: "Only the areas that must be covered are covered-with wool knit." But at least he concedes that coverable areas exist, which for Gernreich is something...

LTV plans to stick to a well-tried tactic: as in earlier acquisitions, it will go along with the old management. The stock that LTV acquires will be put into a five-man voting trust until 1971, with present J. & L. officers having a controlling three-man vote among the trustees. But there will be plenty of dividends for LTV. Jones & Laughlin recently reported first-quarter earnings of $11,706,000 on sales of $277 million...
