...Corp. last week made a move to get into high gear. Off the company's production lines in Kenosha, Wis., rolled the first Javelin specialty car, a handsome 1968-model entry that will put A.M.C. into the bustling youth market with such fast company as Ford's Mustang, Chevrolet's Camaro, Plymouth's Barracuda, Lincoln Mercury's Cougar and Pontiac's Firebird...
...door hardtop with swept-back body, the Javelin boasts the kind of features that the sports-minded car buyer seems to prefer-streamlined hood, bucket seats, split grille and sunken door handles. Also available are such options as a zippy 280-h.p. engine and racing stripes. Roomier than the Mustang, but with a price in the same range (about $2,500), the car itself not only stands to catch on, but, says Company President William Luneburg, its sporty look should also "give the showrooms a traffic boost" for other lines...
...does reward "a few moments of savoring contemplation," but the really intriguing figure is the horse.

Donald N. Frey (pronounced Fry), Iacocca's assistant general manager and chief engineer, the man who actually designed the Mustang, succeeded his boss two years ago as Ford division general manager. Last week Frey, 44, moved even higher. He was promoted...
...find a body on Boston Avenue," said the anonymous caller. Sure enough, police in Medford, Mass., discovered the corpse in the trunk of a gold-colored Mustang. The authorities were neither surprised nor especially agitated. For the state police, it was another entry on the lengthening chart of fratricide among racketeers in Greater Boston. Since Labor Day 1961, when a blood feud started between the McLaughlin brothers and Buddy McLean, 43 victims have accumulated. The original chiefs have long since been killed or incarcerated. Still the bodies fall, much the way the buddies of Jimmy C. and Eddie G. were...
