...disagree as to whether they should take clients along on shopping forays to the showrooms. Billy Baldwin, though he averages only 20 assignments a year, does so only reluctantly. Says he: "My job is to eliminate everything but the very best of what they might want." Miami Decorator Waldo Perez concurs: "They would go crazy. They would like too many things." Fellow Miami Decorator Henry End feels just the opposite. "I wear them out, and they give up trying to remember what was what," says End. "Then they tell me to choose what I think is best...
Even the obvious fact that one was Mexican and the other Negro would have excited little interest - unless someone informed the passer-by that Ines Perez the 5-ft. 4-in., 149-lb. Mexican passer and Jerry Levias, the 5-ft. 10-in., 175-Ib. Negro receiver, were not junior high schoolers at all. They were members of the Southern Methodist University varsity.

...also on ice, water, sand, swampland, and terrain dotted with obstacles, such as rocks half the height of the inflatable bag. Deflated in flight, the ACLG hugs the bottom of the aircraft without causing aerodynamic drag. "We consider the ACLG a complete technological breakthrough in landing systems," says David Perez, civilian project officer in the Flight Dynamics Laboratory at Wright-Patterson A.F.B., Dayton. And so last year, the Air Force awarded Bell a $99,000 contract for wind-tunnel tests of the ACLG. Now Bell has won a second contract for $98,700 to study possible use of its ACLG...
