Since 1907, the Oak Room of Manhattan's venerable Plaza Hotel has been an all-male bastion for three hours every weekday at lunchtime. Until last week, that is, when 15 members of the National Organization for Women, led by that superfeminist Betty Friedan (The Feminine Mystique), 47, demanded entrance on the ground that their civil rights were being violated. Five of the ladies actually managed to brush by a Plaza assistant manager and the maitre d' to capture a center table. But then they...

That was 37 years ago, when Ward was one of a hardy but much heckled band of analysts who presumed to forecast stock prices merely by reading lines on charts. Ward can hardly complain of the following that has since been won by Wall Street's chart-oriented technicians.
