Allende, the Crimson would have us believe, was a benevolent man whose sole desire was greater freedom, justice, and prosperity for all Chileans. The violations of individual rights--the seizures of property, the attempts to censor or repress the opposition--have been ignored, or rationalized according to the altruist "morality." The connections between the economic fallacies of socialism and the inflation and shortages that crippled the Chilean economy have been evaded. The Chilean entrepreneurs and professionals who refused to submit to government plunder and enslavement have been vilified. Those who dare to speak out against Allende's tyranny have been...
...player in Los Angeles) and Eleanor Tennant (who later trained Alice Marble). And under them he perfected the winning softspin game, not to mention the psyche-out gimmick. Then there is the crooked way he rose to wealth: he married it, in Priscilla Wheelan (the Wheelan family was sole owner of American Photograph Corp. and Riggs was handed one of its executive positions). He settled down in the corporate saddle for several lazy years -- now that's hardly your tycoon's rugged individualism.

...Priscilla Wheelan Riggs refuses to reply, but says privately that she is no radical of any kind. Women's Lib seems to have been the least of their problems, and in fact the parting was rather amiable. The Wheelan family was then sole owner of American Photograph Corp., where Bobby occupied an executive chair for many years, and Riggs unchauvinistically walked away from the marriage with a $1,000,000 settlement from his wife. He and Priscilla have three sons and a daughter -there are two sons from his first marriage-and the second Mrs. Riggs still keeps...
