...heart of the city's most genteel hotel district. There were complaints, stoutly denied by Shriver's office, that around the center the girls made too much noise and that some had taken to necking with boys. Also under protest was the $225,000 rent for 18 months paid by the OEO for the Huntington Hotel, which houses the center-$20,000 more than the hotel's estimated sales value...
...American life. Consumer credit is expanding not only because people are borrowing more, but also because more people are borrowing-as an increasing number of Americans rise to the affluent middle and upper-middle classes. A generation or two ago, the average American family made regular payments for rent, streetcar fares, laundry service, blocks of ice and movie tickets-none of which counted as payments of debt. Today the family makes regular payments to finance a house, a second car, a home laundry, a refrigerator and a color TV-all of which count toward installment debt...

Such luminaries as Katharine Cornell, James Cagney, Thomas Hart Benton, Leonard Bernstein and Lillian Hellman have long summered among the island's rolling moors and scrub pine.

One lucky schoolteacher who pays $135 a month for the house during the winter months sublets it for $1,000 a month during the summer...
...building that is done in Spanish red-tile fashion. Though there is a band for dancing in the evenings, spirited nightlife is almost nonexistent. First-time guests at Sea Island usually take a room at the Cloister (summer rates $32-$49 a day double with meals), but regulars usually rent one of the privately owned houses on the island, which are available when their owners are not in residence. The Sea Island Co. takes care of the rental for owners, puts the houses in order for guests, and supplies servants when requested (cost: $600-$1,500 monthly...
