...instead of following up on the plan, Byrne went straight to the Democratic machine. Chicago politics confirmed much as they had before, with Byrne's major efforts going towards patronage jobs and making Chicago the first "designer" city all its trappings personalized with her name tag. There was Mayor Byrne's Clean Up Green Up effort to clean up the city, a Mayor Byrne's Taste of Chicago, a Mayor Byrne's Chicago Fest, and to top it all off, Mayor Byrne's Kool Jazz Fest, for which she disputed naming rights with the promoters of the national tour...

Originally plans called for the equipment to be introduced in the U.S. this summer and fall, but Magnavox and Sony have each launched a spring offensive to seize an early share of the crucial American market.

According to a number of guesstimates, the headquarters skyscraper of the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corp., scheduled for completion in 1985, could eventually cost $920 million, making it the most expensive single building in history. At 41 stories, it would cost only a little less than the $1.1 billion for the entire World Trade Center complex, with its twin towers of 110 stories each and its thousands of offices, including those...
