...prove that Chrysler can be brought back to financial health and is thus eminently deserving of federal aid. The document outlines a five-year strategy. Although President Lee lacocca had said earlier that Chrysler's third-quarter deficit would be "at least double" the $207 million that it reported for the second quarter, bringing the cumulative red ink for the year to about $800 million, the report projected that the total 1979 loss would come to a truly scary $1.073 billion on revenues of $12.4 billion. The company expects to lose another $482 million next year, then move back...

Tracing McIlroy's hospital visits was obviously a labor of love for Neurologist C.A. Pallis of Hammersmith Hospital and Rheumatologist A.N. Bamji of Middlesex Hospital. In their report to the British Medical Journal, they meticulously listed the 22 surnames and eight first names used in various combinations by Mcllroy in registering at different hospitals. (Mcllroy was identified by the description in clinical records of his scars and other physical characteristics.) The names of all the hospitals and the number of admittances to each were also faithfully recorded...
