  • Many Roads, One Journey
    Many Roads, One Journey There are probably hundreds of streets named for various individuals, some obscure, some noted. There are certainly far more than could ever be included in a single exhibit. What we have tried to do is offer a representative sampling of the diverse and fascinating people and their stories, those who created and developed Los Angeles. Although we say these names almost daily, we never stop to consider where they came from, yet we owe them a debt of gratitude. There are certainly many more, who, for various reasons or no reason at all, are not commemorated in this way. That doesn't make them less important, just not as obvious to the casual observer; but by learning the stories behind street names, we honor their contributions and history. In the early days, as now, people came to Southern California for opportunities which didn't exist elsewhere, due then to the social structure of East Coast Society, which was still rigid and traditional: the lower and middle classes stayed lower and middle class and the upper class treated them both as second class. Even financial success didn't always buy social acceptance. The Nouveau riche—those who made big money in industry or earned money rather than inherited it—might have been tolerated, but they were not considered in the same league as those born with a Silver Spoon. Life—and status—was circumscribed from birth. But in California, and especially Southern California, it was different. Far enough away from class distinctions and restrictions, a man was free to reinvent himself in a society that had no such confines.

Among the proposals is a mutual commitment "not to be the first to use either nuclear or conventional weapons." * The U.N. Economic Commission for Latin America reports that in 1982 the region posted the worst record in 40 years. In many nations inflation is rampant, and the region has cumulative foreign debts amounting to almost $275 billion. * Pope John Paul II names 18 Roman Catholic clergymen as cardinals, including Archbishops Joseph L. Bernardin of Chicago and Jozef Glemp of Poland. January 6, 1983: * Great Britain's Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher shuffles her Cabinet. Among the new members is Michael Heseltine, who replaces John Nott as Minister of Defense. * President Reagan signs into law the first increase in federal gas taxes in 23 years. The five-cent-a-gallon increase is to help finance highway and bridge repairs and mass transit systems, thereby creating new jobs. * The Winter 1983 Consumer Electronics Show begins in Las Vegas, Nevada. Telephones (after the recent deregulation), video games, and personal computers are the dominant products at the show. Notable video game displays include the CBS/Fox M*A*S*H introduction and the Spectra-Vision 3-D Vortex game requiring red/blue glasses to see the three dimensional field.

    LOG IN Meshulam Riklis, Financier Who Wed Pia Zadora, Is Dead at 95 Meshulam Riklis with his second wife, the singer and actress Pia Zadora. A successful financier, he once said: “I am known as Mr. Pia Zadora. Why?

He was 95. His daughter Marcia Riklis confirmed the death, in a hospital. Mr. Riklis, who was born in Turkey and raised in Israel, was a brash financial alchemist and corporate raider who built empires out of office equipment companies, retailers like the McCrory-McLellan chain and the Lerner Shops, a variety of outfits like BVD, Playtex, Fabergé and the liquor distiller Schenley, and the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas. He also financed the start-up of Carnival Cruise Line with his friend Ted Arison. Starting in the 1950s, his guiding principle was to use debt to acquire companies — money that he borrowed that would limit his financial exposure. In his 1966 master’s thesis at Ohio State University, he called this approach the “effective non-use of cash” — in other words, leveraged buyouts, often fueled with high- risk junk bonds. “If you are a Rockefeller or a hotel owner, you build an empire based on the company’s worth,” he told Business Week in 1974 when the magazine asked about his mounting debt.
