An ex-professor at New York City's Polytechnic College filches from Harvard its good name, together with 327 other good names, by registering them in Monaco and acquiring exclusive European rights to their use. The owner of the Brattle and Harvard Square Theatres says that "Harvard Square audiences are the most sophisticated in the United States. . . . they stamp their feet, boo, whistle, and write letters."

Still another crisis arose from a Civil Aeronautics Board rule that foreign lines serving the U.S. must be clearly owned by nationals of the same country. Onassis holds both Greek and Argentine citizenship (which he picked up while living in Argentina in the '20s), so he deftly transferred a majority...
