...Blumenthal who successfully promoted a fellow businessman, Textron Chairman G. William Miller, to become chairman of the Federal Reserve Board. It was Blumenthal, more than anyone else, who persuaded Carter that to try to push a sweeping tax reform program through this session of Congress would only frighten businessmen. It was Blumenthal, too, who decided in December that the time had come to intervene in money markets to halt the disorderly rout of the dollar, and who won Carter's approval to start the program while the President was traveling overseas...

Roistering Red Miller and Man-with-a-New-Grubstake Craig Morton are the kind of frontier dreamers old Denverites would have appreciated. Cerebral, straight-thinking Tom Landry and All-American Technician Roger Staubach are the steady, main-chance men that made Dallas Big D. These two very different teams from two very different Western cities will shoot it out in the most spectacular corral ever built. The teams and the setting are unique. Before Super Bowl...
