...this year. At the rate it is now selling, it has a 91-day backlog. All of its vaunted "European"' styling has not stalled the continued decline of Plymouth, Dodge, Valiant and Lancer. Chrysler has pinned much of its hopes for a future comeback on its new chief stylist, Elwood Engel, 45, who was netted last fall in a raid on Ford, where he was a disciple of flamboyant George Walker and had much to do with the elegantly clean 1961 Lincoln...

Determined to give his dealers a more appealing car to sell (it was too late to do much about the 19625), Townsend three months ago hired away from Ford able Stylist Elwood Engel, who created the clean, sculptured lines of the 1961 Lincoln Continental.

Chrysler President Lynn Townsend, who desperately wants the same golden touch for his cars, has ordered Engel to report...
...Lincoln Continental convertible. Another lady, still tingling from his touch, gave him a stereo phonograph; still another thanked him with a complete set of expensive china. In Hollywood, where $1,000 gifts are exchanged as casually as husbands and wives, hairdressers are rarely so rewarded. But George Masters, hair stylist of Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills, is more adored than all the cars, phonographs and dinnerware can tell. At 23, George of Beverly Hills is Hollywood's answer to Kenneth of Lilly Dache, the man that Jackie Kennedy made famous...
