Reunion in Los Angeles
Charles Luckman, who has been taking things easy since his departure from Lever Bros. (TIME, Jan. 30), went back to work last week. Still young (41) and ambitious, Chuck Luckman and Los Angeles Architect William Pereira formed a 50-50 partnership. Luckman graduated (University of Illinois '31) as an architect, though he went into the soap business shortly afterward; Pereira is an old friend and college classmate. The firm, specializing in commercial and institutional structures, has $25 million in business on hand.
