...Journal had another unusual problem: too many ads. It simply could not accommodate all the advertisers who wanted an opportunity (at $43,000 a full page) to reach the paper's elite readers, who have an average household income of about $70,000 and a net worth of $650,000. Last week the Journal solved this dilemma by splitting the paper into two parts, thus raising the maximum number of pages it can print from 48 to 56 a day.

...problem is that the Administration's current lease sale schedule, which opens the land for exploration, is too little, too late. We are unable to go first to the areas we think have the greatest potential. Industry is pushed into intense competition for small deposits that will not really make the largest contributions toward solving our energy problems.

Pelé's biggest problem occurs off the set, where he is constantly mobbed by rabid soccer fans. In the place Hungarians call Hollywood on the Danube, the "Black Pearl" outdraws even the "Italian Stallion...
...Wall Street of Michael Thomas' first novel knows all about bears and bulls. It is soon to learn about camels. The Kingdom, a Middle Eastern country easily confused with Saudi Arabia, has a problem: too much money and not enough closet space. What should it do with the endless trunkloads of dollars it exchanges for limitless barrels of oil? After all, the Kingdom feels the pinch of inflation too: every time it raises the price of crude, its dollars depreciate. Everyone is caught in a viscous circle-until the entrance of David Harrison, American freelance financial adviser, connoisseur...
