Hideous Heritage. Der Alte himself bloomed late in life, beginning his main mission when he was 73. In 1949, when, as Chancellor Kiesinger said last week, "he took over the office of Chancellor, the name of Germany in the world was that of an outcast. He who had opposed dictatorship had to take over the heritage of misery, bitterness, hostility and hatred that it had left behind." As the architect and first Chancellor of West Germany, Adenauer singlehanded led his nation from the ruins of that hideous heritage to a respected and prosperous place among Western nations...
...quarter of a century under the command of the late Henri Soulé, Manhattan's Le Pavilion was the shrine of haute cuisine in the U.S. Hélas, since Restaurateur Soulé's death last year, the eatery has slipped a bit-at least to the palate of the New York Times's fastidious Gastronome Craig Claiborne, who dropped in a few times to see how the fare was faring under the new management of sometime Hotelman Claude Philippe.

Kettering, the General Motors inventor and executive. Along with three other Simon-picked directors (Simon himself resigned as chairman and director last November), Wheeling Steel President Robert Morris announced his resignation. In as chairman and chief executive of Wheeling will go Allison R. Maxwell Jr., 52, a gregarious salesman who has held the same job at Pittsburgh Steel since...
Introducing Idols. Bishop, himself a first-rate stand-up comic and successful pinch hitter for Carson in the past, could not seem to find his way. Using roughly the same format as Tonight, Bishop provided little more than late-hour tedium for viewers. His guests included Buddy Greco and Sonny and Cher. Debbie Reynolds talked about Girl Scouts; Danny Thomas kidded around to little effect. Everybody plugged everybody's newest picture, recording or TV show. Bishop introduced his rabbi and a priest, and kept referring to his jitters, which needed no introduction. Dragging his microphone into the studio audience...
