...sports-car aficionados, the sinuous lines and throaty snarl of a Ferrari are the ultimate symbols of automotive sex appeal. Even Fiat Chairman Giovanni Agnelli, a man who can afford the fin est, drives a custom-built $50,000 Ferrari that has the driver's seat centered between two passengers' seats. His car can go 180 m.p.h., but Agnelli wants more; now he intends to add the entire Ferrari company to his growing Fiat organization. A merger announcement last week said that "the current relationship of technical collaboration will be trans formed during the year into equal participation...
...officer's insolent reply, be attacks him. The entire scene atop the peak, like the preceding climbing scenes, has the characters standing on rock against an entirely white horizon. The screen has been stripped down to the men and their material surroundings; rooted on the rock, they snarl at each other as light pours down on them. The reduced situation prepares for a direct conflict between them, but at the same time puts them in a more obvious relation to their real surroundings.

And President Nixon's relatively light-handed statement on student protests last week showed Hayakawa that the rest of the country isn't ready for the crackdown either--at least not as a result of S.F. State's example...
Foreman is a man of bewildering contradictions. His personal charm, when he cares to exercise it, is overwhelming; yet he has been known to snarl at dilatory waitresses: "I get $200 an hour, and you have taken up $60 worth." In the courtroom, he would almost literally die for his clients; during conferences in their cells, he often cusses them up one side and down the other. With the well-heeled, he is merciless about fees. They must be paid in either cash or property (he owns numerous cars and houses turned over to him in fee settlements). However...
