...back next year. A small shop received through the mail a 326-page compendium of OSHA regulations-the advance warning of federal scrutiny. No member of the ten man staff had time to read it. When the OSHA inspector arrived, he disallowed a grace period and fined the owner $60 for not having a guard on a compressor belt used once a year. The area's education agency, created to replace the school superintendents of eight counties, has ballooned into an aggressive bureaucracy of far more people than all the old county offices put together. The agency has hired...
...battle to save Grand Central began when New York City named the terminal a landmark in 1967. This meant that its owner, the nearly bankrupt Penn Central Transportation Co., could not make any changes on the building's exterior without permission from the city's landmarks-preservation commission.

Before he struck out in the White House, Richard Nixon often rooted for his favorite ball club, the California Angels, from a privileged spot: the private box of Angels Owner Gene Autry.

"People today are willing to be comfortable, both physically and socially," says David Tessler, owner of San Francisco's City Island Dry Goods Co. boutique. "They have no use for constraints or formality." Fashion Savant Geraldine Stutz, president of Manhattan's Henri Bendel, declares not only that "the wrinkle is the apogee of casual dressing" but also that it is "the ultimate declaration...
...refused to start, but by parade time the 1903 Model A was purring nicely. The driver, William Clay Ford, younger brother of Henry II, led 75 Ford cars through Dearborn, Mich., to celebrate the company's 75th anniversary. For Ford, 53, known to sports fans as the owner of the Detroit Lions, the parade was his first public appearance as chairman of the company's executive committee. How does William feel about his new job? "Unless somebody invents a day with more than 24 hours," he says, "more time at the company means less time with the Lions...
