...unmounted, and Tiffany's is not selling the loose stones. The biggest sale so far: a brooch containing an 84-carat, square-shaped Tanzanite surrounded by diamonds. The price and purchaser are Tiffany secrets. Says Platt: "She is a very discerning collector of fine jewelry, so we can rest happy in the knowledge that our stone has found a good home." Wherever...
...Little Kitchen, an 18-seat restaurant on Manhattan's Lower East Side, got such good newspaper reviews that its Negro owner-cook, who calls herself "Princess Pamela," finally closed the place for three weeks last month to get a rest. In Detroit, Charlie Red, owner of a soul-food takeout business who is known locally as the "King of Wings," reports that orders from whites for his fried chicken wings in barbecue sauce have nearly quintupled in the past two months. The craze has even spread to Paris, where Leroy Haynes, an expatriate Chicagoan, serves Spanish yams and African...

Eastern's main problem is that it is a relatively short-haul carrier. It generates 45% of its revenues within the crowded Golden Triangle and much of the rest from the short hops that Former Chairman Eddie Rickenbacker once characterized as "Tobacco Road stops." Fare structures are generally less profitable on short hauls than on longer flights. And Eastern's concentration on densely traveled routes has left the carrier vulnerable to the traffic congestion that the FAA is desperate to alleviate; delays cost the line $6,000,000 more last year than...
