Bicks hopes to change the antitrust laws as well as enforce them. He would like to provide tax relief for stockholders who, in such antitrust cases as the G.M.-Du Pont divorce, are forced by the courts to sell their shares. He also wants legislation to force corporations to hand over their records in civil as well as criminal cases. At present, antitrust lawyers must grope half-blind before trial, guessing what documents contain, or else stretch the law to make criminal charges. Such legislation, he argues, would enable the trustbusters to make a more rational decision on whether...
...shows-not all good by any means, but at least suggesting effort-including New Jersey-WNTA's excellent Play of the Week and the weekly Susskind symposium. Open End. He also produced miscellaneous specials (notably NBC's Moon and Sixpence with Laurence Olivier), the CBS Du Pont Show of the Month, and helped turn out a series of NBC dramatic programs that established Art Carney, once known only as Jackie Gleason's second banana, as the season's outstanding TV actor.

Brother Ted Kennedy gamely made the first ski jump of his career for the cause, and Brother Bob, erstwhile counsel...
Such chart experts as Walston & Co.'s Edmund Tabell and Du Pont Homsey & Co.'s G. S. Colby rely heavily on point and figure charts that carefully note every price fluctuation in hundreds of stocks, as well as the changes in market averages. A basic part of the theory is that the longer a stock or a market average stays in a narrow trading range, the greater will be its rise-or fall-when the stock or average breaks out. Tabell, who advised his clients to sell in January, now says: "The industrial average has begun to form...
