...afraid," says Santúrová, 65, who lives on a $170-a-month pension. "I need at least 60 kg of sugar to make wine every year ... God forbid I let myself be caught off guard." She also plans to buy at least 10 kg of rice, and already has 10 L of sunflower oil. You might think a war or hurricane was about to hit the region.

Coach Brown has been experimenting with the Combination crew, and changed the seating three times on Saturday. O. A. Pendar '27 and D. S. Greer '29 were tried at stroke. W. K. Rice '27 and R. S.

But seeing how land prices had fallen to absurdly low levels after World War II, Taikichiro began buying lots in central Tokyo, where the family had been tobacconists and rice merchants for generations. With the assistance of his second son, Minoru, and third son, Akira, now 67, Taikichiro built Mori Building into one of Japan's most successful real estate--management companies.
