...Larson, Boston & Maine President Patrick McGinnis, CBS Commentator Eric Sevareid, U.A.W. Vice President Leonard Woodcock, and a host of presidents and heirs apparent from some of the nation's largest companies. As for the 225 executives who have already attended Aspen, they consider the institute their second alma mater. Says Steelman Clarence Randall: "I am still in a very warm glow over my adventure at Aspen. It ought to be required for every man holding substantial responsibility in the business world...
