...UFWOC organizers are concentrating their efforts on New England's largest chain, "Stop and Shop." The man who owns all 138 stores is Irving Rabb, financier, philanthropist, and member of Brandeis' Board of Trustees. Several months ago the Rabb Foundation, which is a family project, was discovered to be one of the many conduits for CIA financing. Last week, Irving Rabb was picketed by more than 200 people when he attended an honorary function at Brandeis...
...recent years to Lake Michigan, but ten blocks above the district's northern border sits a treatment plant which daily dumps half-cleaned sewage into the lake. And in Gary, Indiana the huge U.S. Steel plant continues to empty its industrial wastes. U.S. Steel has been ordered to stop by the end of 1968, but Bacon doesn't think the date can stand up in court. Last summer, millions of dead alewives mysteriously washed up on the shores of Lake Michigan, and Bacon admits that the dead fish could easily cause more pollution than all his ingenious polices have prevented...

Cornfeld claims to be happy the way things turned out. American clients account for only 3% of l.O.S.'s business anyway-and Cornfeld figures to unload Investors...
After Willis replaced Hughes, Petrocelli sent Flood deep to center for his sacrifice fly to score Scott and moved Smith to third. Petrocelli took second on a delayed double steal as Shannon made a diving stop of catcher McCarver's throw to save a run. Elston Howard was then intentionally walked to load the bases, and Lonborg--after hitting a line foul off Jose Tartabull in the on-deck circle--struck out on three pitches...
