Tugging open all those empty refrigerators for Westinghouse hardly gave her a meat-and-potatoes background for her new job. Indeed, onetime TV Pitchgirl Betty Furness, 51, was as surprised as anyone when President Johnson appointed her his $26,000-a-year Special Assistant on Consumer Affairs, replacing Mrs. Esther Peterson, who returns to full-time duties as Assistant Secretary of Labor.
