...chief for Japan's toymaking Tsukudaya Co. Last February Suda began experimenting with a U.S. made plastic-and-cardboard eye that appears to wink whenever the angle at which light hits it is changed. Suda placed the come-hither eye in a 12-in. doll made of black sheet plastic inflated with air. Besides its stubby, clinging arms, the dakkochan boasts ring-shaped ears, a red doughnut mouth and a plastic grass skirt.

For the week, U.S. Steel rose 3¼, and Jones & Laughlin, Lukens and Youngstown Sheet & Tube all rose between...
...anything, the second buy was a better bargain than the first. The Denver Post has been barely scraping by on the balance sheet, but the three Springfield papers-the morning Union (circ. 80,968), the evening News (99,998) and the Sunday Republican (112,352)-produce a cool net profit of $1,000,000 a year...
