...President Walks. "Mr. Brock man is a fine client. But we fought a lot," says Legorreta, with the grin of a man whose ideas have won out. A giant whirlpool froths and roars in the entrance plaza. Arriving cars will be whisked up a ramp to a parking wing, while guests register in the vast lobby. Most of the hotel, inside and out, is finished in rough white plaster; art works enliven public places, and there are whole walls painted in fierce pink, yellow or purple-all good Mexican colors. The bedrooms are unusually large -some...
...rank third in its field, well behind Sears, Roebuck and a bit below J.C. Penney. In his seven-year struggle to revitalize Wards, Tom Brooker has unabashedly borrowed many tactics from Sears, where he rose to a vice presidency for manufacturing before leaving in 1958 to head appliance-making Whirlpool Corp. He closed marginal outlets, invested much of Wards' pile of idle cash in big new suburban stores, revamped sagging catalog sales, upgraded merchandise lines, established long-term contracts with suppliers.

Amplified Whirlpool.

They also objected on the basis that the law involves a "rock or whirlpool" choice. "Where a reward is held out to an individual for the waiver of a constitutional right," wrote Judge Harold Tyler, "or a greater threat posed for choosing to assert it, any waiver may be said to have been extracted in an impermissible manner." The judges ruled unconstitutional that part...
...locale was a nudist camp that had just closed its season, so the participants had privacy in 400 acres complete with cabanas and a Jacuzzi whirlpool bath big enough to hold all of them at once. Heated to 102°, the bath proved to be important therapeutically. As newly arrived members met, fully clothed, they were asked to discuss any anxieties or fantasies that they had about their imminent nudity. Many were apprehensive-surprisingly, more about seeing others nude than about being seen-but just talking it out helped. Though they had the choice of bathing nude or wearing...
