...most assiduously promoted exhibition to be seen in the U.S. in years. Its catalog weighs as much as a young salmon (6 1/2 lbs.) and is about as hard to carry. Though the National Gallery's director, J. Carter Brown, is accepting most of the credit for it, the main work of selection, cataloging and arrangement was carried out by its English curator, Gervase Jackson-Stops, architectural adviser to the National Trust in London. He did the job with wide knowledge and, in the matings of some objects, a dry wit. One could be fatigued by the result but never...
...task of solving ComputerLand's woes now falls to Ed Faber, 52, who served as president from 1976 until he retired in 1983. The former Marine Corps captain was salmon fishing in Redding, Calif., on Sept. 27 when Barbara Millard called to ask him to become the new chief executive.

Prowling the bustling Amazing Stories set in his blue baseball cap, brown leather bomber jacket, salmon-colored jeans, pink socks and gray running shoes with SPIELBERG stamped on the heels, the Mogul of Magic looks just old enough to be the classmate-coach at a college touch-football scrimmage.

Spielberg's noncombative vitality infects everyone he works with. Says Richard...
...accompanying studies in the New England Journal focused on how a fish diet affects the body. Researchers at the Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland found that adding salmon oil to the diet seems to help lower the levels of triglycerides and a type of cholesterol known as VLDL (very-low-density lipoprotein) in patients with high levels of these potentially dangerous fatty substances. According to Dr. William Connor, who headed the study, as much as 30% of the adult American population has high levels of these fats. In the past, these people have been advised to avoid fatty fishes...
