Tisch and Lorillard Chairman Manuel Yellen live. Meeting at the Tisch home in Scarsdale, Tisch and Yellen were able to work out within one week a deal by which Lorillard's product line (Kent, True, Newport, Old Gold and Spring cigarettes, Tabby cat food and Reed candies) will join the 14 hotels and 110 theaters controlled by Tisch and a younger brother.
