...their drive, Butcher and Seabrook operate in relaxed fashion, Butcher from his ground-floor brokerage desk, Seabrook from a pint-size office eight floors above. Butcher still swims daily in his suburban pool, plays tennis regularly. Seabrook, a model-railroad buff, raises horses and collects antique carriages (he has two dozen) at his 4,200 acre farm in Salem, N.J. He and his wife, former United Press Correspondent Liz Toomey (whom he met at Grace Kelly's wedding to Monaco's Prince Rainier), often slip into 18th century costume for champagne-sipping country outings amid the asparagus...
Chop & Smash. The Cam Pha raid, and raids on five other previously forbidden places in recent weeks, reduced the number of untouched targets in North Viet Nam to a mere 46. Most of those 46 are too insignificant (small factories, pint-sized petroleum dumps) to warrant the risk of U.S. lives; other potential targets, such as factories in downtown areas, are ruled out on humanitarian grounds. Of the major targets not yet hit, many will probably be bombed in time. The most likely remaining targets: the power station and railyards at Lao Cai, an important supply link with China; three...

And Grossman has found a ready market for the English pub-dart-board, half-pint mugs, Watney-Mann beer and all-overseas. Düsseldorfs Victoria was opened last week in a sort of tip-for-tap deal with local owners (Watney's supplies advice on "authentic" details, the pubs buy Watney-Mann's beer); more of them are planned for Madrid, Florence...
...Doorway. Clouding the whole presidential picture is Alabama's Wallace, a magnum of mischief in a half-pint package. If Wallace does in deed run as a third-party candidate, warns Goldwater, "he'll take votes away from Republicans," probably in the very Southern states that Barry carried in 1964: Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina...
