...speed and efficient routing, vertical and horizontal conveyor belts will move materials through various departments. The lowest office floor, 87 ft. above wide granite walks, will rest on a base pierced by arcades, which lead into a three-level lobby where a TIME-LIFE library and a gallery and exhibition center will be open to the public. The building, scheduled for partial completion and occupancy next year, adheres to Louis Sullivan's principle that architectural form should follow human function. In a broader sense, the building is designed not only for our Subscription Services staff but for the needs...
Along with his program, Johnson initiated a spate of wide-ranging actions to implement it. "We have a target," he said, "and we are going to put all the muscle that this Government has behind the dollar." He meant it.

...older of Woody's two sons. And as Oklahoma-born Woody's great songs voiced the common man's despair in the dusty '30s, New York-born Arlo throbs with his own generation's hang-ups. Its length has kept Alice from wide disk-jockey exposure, but Arlo's first Reprise LP is moving steadily up on the charts...
