What Nixon wants Connally to do in Washington is probably not to make economic policy anyway, especially at this notably difficult time for the economy (see BUSINESS). Instead, Connally should serve him well as a far more forceful defender of that policy before Congress than was David Kennedy, a guileless Mormon who will move to a Cabinet-level job in international finance at the State Department. In terms of economic ideology, Connally is an enigma: he recently observed that the Administration's attack on inflation could not succeed without wage and price controls, but he has not said what...
Harvard Graustark. Like the book, the movie takes the trite and true prescription and flips it: boy meets girl, boy gets girl, boy loses girl. Harvard Jock Oliver Barrett IV digs Rhode Island Social Zero Jennifer Cavilled. His family disapproves. He defies them and marries her anyway. Whereupon fate−that inconstant jade−does the couple in. There has not been such a wrong-side-of-the-tracks meet since Holiday (1938), in which Gary Grant announced that he had worked his way through college, causing Katharine Hepburn's jillionaire father to harrumph mightily...

After that, he could again be boss of his own major airline...
...difficulties in raising money to buy some of the first jets for Trans World Airlines. It seemed an impossible assignment: Hughes had not dealt personally with any journalist−or with many of his own $100,000-a-year executives−in more than a decade. McCulloch tried anyway, and succeeded. Now TIME'S New York bureau chief, he recalls what happened...
