Manhattan's Henri Bendel already has its daytime strapless line on second and third reorder. Halston has sold 380 strapless sarongs (price range: $600 to $1,000).

It seems clear that all of them talked--except St. Clair, who, as a result, comes across as a pain in the neck and only a second-rate hot-shot. Haig, who now denies everything, was the real motive force: he was the chief of staff and so controlled the flow of paper and visitors, he was a crucial link to Kissinger, he was the only person who seemed to know what everyone else was supposed to be doing when the crunch came...
