Simpler & Livelier. "Most living rooms are a total disaster because they are not used-they were meant to be looked at," says San Francisco Decorator Michael Taylor. Taylor spent a year transforming San Francisco Socialite Mrs. Davies Lewis' drawing room from a masculine retreat with wood-paneled walls and bookcases (the taste of the former occupant) into an elegant, eclectic ensemble. "It is more European than San Franciscan, which is what I wanted," says Mrs. Lewis, who has used Taylor twice before, jokes that she agrees with Taylor on all but one matter. "I don't usually like...
...Wild Side. Floors? Wall-to-wall carpeting, once a status symbol, is giving way to area rugs, which allow polished wood floors to show handsomely, as in Decorator Anthony Hail's own San Francisco studio. Walls? The trend is away from stark, white-painted plaster and toward colors and textures. Decorator Frank Austin used burlap in Actress Polly Bergen's Beverly Hills living room; Decorator Arthur Elrod specified walnut wood and marble for Film Financier Eugene Klein's hilltop home near...
...Great Conductor Hunt, one of the choicest quarries has been shaggy-haired Seiji Ozawa, 32, conductor of the Toronto Symphony. He is gifted enough to have been considered a prospect for two of the nation's top orchestras, New York and Chicago (TIME, Jan. 19). Last week the San Francisco Symphony announced that it had bagged Ozawa for itself, starting in the fall of 1970. Retiring Viennese Conductor Josef Krips, 65, who in the past five years has rebuilt San Francisco into one of the nation's solid second-rank ensembles, was largely responsible for the choice...
...Ozawa, the move seems a shrewd one. The pressures of conducting the top orchestras could cramp or even crush a youthful career. San Francisco offers him a unit that can grow with him as he broadens and deepens his repertory, and it will require him to conduct only 17 of the season's 35 weeks. As he said last week, this will leave time for "opera, other orchestras, studying, and many other nice things. I think at my age it is important to have many experiences...
...Wall Street Journal to trumpet the news. The ad summed up a situation that has been gradually cooking in the Pennsylvania Dutch hills along with the ovens full of African cocoa beans: Hershey is becoming more than a candymaker. Since 1966, the company has acquired two macaroni firms (San Giorgio and Delmonico Foods), a French Canadian baking company (David & Frere, Ltée.) and, for $23 million two months ago, the Cory Corp. of Chicago, which makes coffee brewers, appliances, pens and automatic pencils. Non-candy operations will soon account for 35% of Hershey sales...
