...night life often associated with his industry. "I don't live in that world of 'Daaahling!' I can't stand it," Lauren says. Instead he tends his ranch, drives a collection of antique race cars, and jogs three or four miles each morning. Lauren's cultural interests tend to mirror his professional instincts. Last year he spent a reported $350,000 to sponsor an acclaimed historical exposition of riding tack and apparel, called "Man and the Horse," at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Though he professes to be nonpolitical, Lauren openly supported Democratic Hopeful Gary Hart during the 1984 presidential...

Bought by the Times Mirror Co. in 1970, the Times Herald had by 1980 almost overtaken the Morning News in ads and circulation. But then the paper ran into management troubles. It dipped into the red during the first quarter of this year, while the tightly run News jumped to a formidable circulation lead (390,275 vs. 244,629). The News's owner, A.H. Belo Corp., could rightly claim victory, but perhaps the biggest winner was MediaNews President and CEO William Dean Singleton, 34.
