...murders in Munich last week-preceded by 20 hours of high drama and precipitated by a horrendously bungled police shootout -gripped most of the world in attentive thrall. Because the drama was carried live on television, the suspense involved everyone, evoking memories of similarly intensely emotional events and a train of other murders that seemed to begin that day in Dallas in 1963. This time the final monstrous twist was that the killings were in Munich, the original spawning ground of Nazism-and the victims were Jews...

...buys a room and meals-for those willing to holiday amid beach umbrellas ten to 30 rows deep. Some Italians who are compelled to take their vacations in the August crush have characterized them as holidays at hard labor.

...hired Ollie to train its personnel, and it is now testing Ollie-burgers-at a high 95? each-in its Ohio outlets. Gleichenhaus is not entirely sure that Lum's countermen can duplicate his masterpiece: "Those yo-yos are looking for a short way to make my burgers, but there's no way other than the right way." Even so, Brown intends to go nationwide with Ollie-burgers within a year, and has prepared 63 television commercials featuring Ollie in "an Archie Bunker kind of approach." The rest may some day be history...

...masses of wage earners. When profits are perking up, a company's management is more willing and able to grant wage and salary increases to its employees.
