...Guinnesses have an apartment in Manhattan's expensive Waldorf Towers, a villa in Lausanne (with a bowling alley in the basement), a 350-ton yacht that plies the summer Mediterranean, a seven-story house on Paris' Avenue Matignon ("My husband is a perfectionist, and so he would rather build a building than live in an apartment"), a stud farm in Normandy, and a mansion near Palm Beach at Lake Worth, Fla. The Florida property is divided by U.S. Highway A1A, faces the lake on one side and the beach on the other; the two halves are connected...

...days of heartfelt gemutlichkeit over a cup of coffee, lasting sometimes 'til gray dawn. This action imperils also that welcome respite from the bombast of the lecture hall; even the non-bohemian, more conventional student will have to consider seriously the financial strain of the between-class coffee break.

Glutted with ten-month old "revivals" like Our Man in Havana and larded at either end with saponaceous strains of Muzak, our once beloved theatre sounds like the Waldorf until the lights go off, and from there on out there's little to do but yawn and beat it as the projectionist trots out either second-rate foreign films like Rosemary or recently produced box-office certainties like Orfeu Negro...

...cumulus cloud of cigar smoke drifted over the Waldorf-Astoria's grand ballroom as the heroes of bygone Saturdays settled back to listen to the speeches and entertainment. The occasion was the National Football Foundation's annual banquet, and the first man on his feet was Bob Hope. He was in top form, and when he sat down again, Hope left the old footballers weak with laughter. "Things have changed," he said. "I took a cab from the hotel to come here, and Carmine De Sapio was driving it." Then he turned to the young collegian award winners...
