While Michigan's bow-tied Governor G. (for Gerhard) Mennen Williams flitted around the U.S. adding polish to his presidential sheen, the man who minded the store for him over the last three years was polished, personable Lieutenant Governor Philip A. Hart. Last week 45-year-old Phil Hart allowed that his turn had come to leave Michigan to get a new sheen of his own. Summoning newsmen to his Lansing office, Hart announced that he would be the Williams-backed Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate seat held by Republican Charles E. Potter...
President Lynn White Jr. of Mills College, who says he won't be satisfied until he hears a woman say with pride, "I'm a housewife," can rest at ease.

Though FPC left Nez Perce open to private construction by Pacific Northwest Power, a four-company combine, powermen feared that such a dam would almost certainly need heavy federal financing...
...quietly stolen some thunder from Northwest Democrats. Last week all eyes turned to Seaton's suggestion for a $274 million multipurpose dam at Pleasant Valley instead of at Nez Perce. FPC and many powermen have opposed it because it would be above the Salmon and Imnaha Rivers, thus store much less water than Nez Perce. It would also flood out the lowest Hells Canyon dam that Idaho Power Co. is licensed to build. But Pleasant Valley, under hard study by the Interior Department since last year, would certainly save more fish than Nez Perce, be within range of private...
...Alleghany got the good news, directors voted in Allan P. Kirby, 65, Alleghany president and silent financial backer of Young for the last 20 years to succeed Young as Alleghany chairman. Five-and-Ten-Store Heir Kirby, largest single stockholder in both Alleghany (516,500 common shares) and Central (300,100 shares), will continue as president, also become chairman of the executive committee...
