...Capricorn-Carter courtship began, legend around Atlanta has it, when the newly-elected governor paid Phil Walden, the Macon rock mogul, a visit, promising the nascent Georgia recording industry protection from tape-making copyright pirates. Carter got tight with Gregg Allman, Dicky Betts et al when they showed up late--5 a.m.--at the Governor's Mansion for a post-concert get-together that Carter hosted for Bob Dylan, the Band and the "Brothers...
...snow cover on top tends to ice up or blow away (since the mountain is almost above the timber-line and only scrub pine trees offer protection), but when it's open, an aerial tramway and two T-bars serve it. Cannon has a great front face for mogul skiers and racers and it's served by its own little chairlift that rarely has a line. In addition, it has nice beginner's slopes. Student tickets are half-price on weekdays (with I.D.). 147 miles from Boston...
America is a land of upward mobility--we've all heard that since grade school. Every boy can grow up to be president, and Benjamin Lassiter rose from poor immigrant to power mogul in Boston.

...dispense maternal care in its oddest forms, and the men go home happy. One client makes elaborate banana splits on a naked woman's stomach while munching on a banana. A man from Georgia comes to watch a white woman do erotic dances with a black woman. A finance mogul pays Xaviera to huskily recite the Dow Jones averaged while she strips on his conference table. A preppie comes in to talk to his woman about the problems of yachting, and his face lights up when she murmurs wonderingly, "You don't say!" Everyone seems to have forgotten about...
Everybody knows that Billy Graham is a great showman who can fill arenas in most cities of the world, but few realize that the evangelist is also something of a movie mogul. His Burbank studio, World Wide Pictures, has turned out 101 films over the past 25 years, many of them pedestrian one-reelers, some of higher quality. Graham's latest, The Hiding Place, which is being previewed in eleven cities this spring, is a totally new departure. A 145-minute color spectacular with two award-whining stars, Julie Harris and Eileen Heckart, it boasts 2,000 extras...
