...Camaro (165 h.p. as compared with 140 h.p., though both offer optional 325-h.p. engines), will cost "a little more" than Camaro's $2,466 and come equipped with an inflatable spare tire that will save enough trunk space for an extra Scotch cooler. Called the Space-Saver, the spare takes up half as much room as an ordinary tire, can be inflated when needed with a Freon gas can. Developed by B. F. Goodrich, the minispare is guaranteed to last 1,000 miles, will retail at $32.80. Goodrich is also working on a tire whose sidewalls...
Rarely in recent years had there been such a rush by banks and savings and loan associations to lure deposits from the public. From New York to Los Angeles, financial institutions splurged with big-sized ads offering the average saver a return of 4½%, 4.85%, even 51% . This growing struggle for savings is the most vivid result to date of the Federal Reserve Board's month-old boost in the discount rate and its simultaneous increase (from 4½% to 5½%) in the maximum interest that banks may pay on time deposits of 30 days or more...
...Moscow, but the Japanese appear to have bowed to all major Russian conditions. State-owned Japan Air Lines and the Soviets' Aeroflot would jointly operate a weekly flight using giant Russian TU-114 turboprop planes, Russian cockpit crews (with a Japanese pilot sitting in as a face-saver) and mixed Soviet-Japanese cabin crews.

...very important that you use a 10? comb," Kweskin says. "The expensive ones are too thick to vibrate well. A lifetime supply of wax paper costs 29?." Geoff Muldaur, 20, plays mandolin, guitar, kazoo and, most rewardingly, washboard. He was the National Washboard Co.'s "Soap Saver." Muldaur has modified his washboard by tacking it up against another washboard and stuffing old socks between the two grates to "give it a fatter sound." Mouth-Harpist Mel Lyman, 25, distinguishes between his instrument and the harmonica by saying, "People who play the harmonica are hung...
...grooves like these should be worn more often. The California Trail is a proud and valuable book, researched with skill and a lifetime's attention. Its lack of flashing style can hardly defeat the record it offers. In this era of the third martini and the heart-saver chair, the story of the people in the covered wagons seems shockingly alien, as if they were someone else's ancestors...
