...integrated team to the 1968 Olympics. Vorster also created something of a stir last month by receiving a trade delegation from the black African nation of Malawi with full honors (including limousines driven by white chauffeurs), entertained Prime Minister Leabua Jonathan of the tiny new state of Lesotho at lunch in Cape Town's stately Mount Nelson Hotel-breaking at least three apartheid restrictions in the process. Last week Vorster's government announced that it will grant limited autonomy to a tribal area in South West Africa known as Ovamboland, thus making at least one hesitant concession...
...bland corporate management, he insists on ruling his 20th century aeronautical beehive like a 19th century industrial barony. His warm paternalism is flavored with benevolent despotism; he customarily sends a pair of baby shoes when an employee becomes a parent but frowns on an employee leaving the plant for lunch...
...common consent, no one toils harder for the McDonnell team than Mr. Mac himself. Aside from an occasional round of golf (he is lucky to break 100), his relaxation consists of a nap after lunch and two drinks before a late dinner with his second wife, the former Mrs. Priscilla Brush Forney.

Two pickles if you know Florence. He also orders a large coke for twenty-five cents. Five minutes later, he's done. A ten cent tip for Florence. And don't forget to get a twelve cent box of crackerjacks at the cashier...
...dinner, Tommy's Lunch. Tommy's attracts the really alienated Adams House types and hangers-on, not because of its food which, at best, is ordinary, but because of its extras--the jukebox, the pinball machine, and big Tommy himself. Regulars claim that the Seeburg Stereo Jukebox is without doubt "the best box in the Square." At full volume, it provides total sound. Even the roast beef moves. Right next to the box is a great pinball machine, next to the box is a great pinball machine, Midway's Two Man Rodeo. You can always get a game at Tommy...
