...others, the losses are all too genuine. A Portland, Ore., printer borrowed heavily to buy a new issue of a computer manufacturer at 5. When the stock dropped to 21, his loan was called, forcing him to sell. Altogether, he lost about half of his $2,000 investment. Sylvan Fry, 53, a manufacturer's agent, began investing for the first time last winter, buying oil, chemical and computer issues. On paper he has already lost $6,500 of the $11,400 that he started with. George Ratliff Jr., 39, a Pittsburgh steel-company engineer, began 1969 with a portfolio...
...third-generation computer is capable of controlling up to four simultaneous remote terminals, each with a card read-punch unit and a line-printer. The Center is installing one terminal at its office on 8 Mt. Auburn Street, and is negotiating for the installation of terminals at the Business and Medical Schools, according to Thomas L. Sexton, business manager of the Computing Center...
Right now, with the report still at the printer's, it's a moot point whether or not America will carry out the report's recommendations.

When summoned to Pablo Picasso's Riviera villa last March, Paris Printer Aldo Crommelynck packed only one clean shirt. There had been many previous summonses in the 20 years that Crommelynck, 37, and his brother Piero, 34, had been privileged to print the master's occasional engravings. The brothers even found it worthwhile to keep a small printing press in an atelier near Picasso's house, enabling the impatient artist to view proofs without delay. From those earlier calls, Crommelynck fully expected to run off proofs of one or possibly two new engravings-all Picasso ever seemed...
Crommelynck found that the 87-year-old Picasso had launched into a fury of sustained creativity, turning out etchings-and nothing else-at the astonishing rate of almost two a day. The printer resignedly settled into a state of semi-residence as the artist worked on and on, from March into early October. As remarkable as the demanding pace was the subject to which Picasso addressed himself. At a time of life when sex is little more than a dim memory for most men, he was lustily scratching out on copper one erotic scene after another, never hesitating to boldly...
