...ones," and his display of pre-Columbian artifacts at Manhattan's Metropolitan Museum is one of the world's finest. Corporately, Consolidated Foods last week agreed to acquire, for $3,400,000 in stock, Idaho Frozen Foods, Inc., a $5,000,000-a-year processor of frozen-potato products. This will be Consolidated's second acquisition in 1966 (the other: E. Kahn's Sons of Cincinnati, a meat processor with sales of $45 million) and the 44th since Cummings organized the company 26 years ago. Now the U.S.'s fastest-growing food processor, Consolidated will...

After two years, he decided that the military life was not for him, left to take a job as a data processor with International Business Machines Corp. in Manhattan.

It will also sound an alarm when any of the readings fall outside normal limits...
...atomic weights and unique electrical properties make them invaluable servants: argon for welding, krypton for long-lasting light bulbs, and xenon for high-intensity lights such as those used at airports. Even the more common gases are moving into new fields. In the next few months a big food processor will announce that it is flash-freezing fruits and vegetables with liquid nitrogen, which locks in that on-the-vine flavor. Last week McDonnell Aircraft announced that it has ordered eight special nitrogen-cooled chambers that re-create the lonely cold and vacuum of outer space...
Last week a combine made up of the Italian Fasco investment company and a subsidiary of the French Banque de Paris et des Pays Bas agreed to put up more than $14 million to buy a 20% interest in the Chicago-based food processor, Libby, McNeill & Libby, which only recently was criticized by De Gaulle's government for its plans to set up a major canning operation in the south of France. Presumably, Libby will now be welcome. In Hawaii, Tokyo's Kokusai Kogyo Co. is awaiting only Japanese government approval before handing over $8.7 million...
