<p> RETIRING. PAUL NEAL ("Red") ADAIR, 78, legendary fighter of
oil well fires; in Houston. After extinguishing 2,000 fires
over 35 years--an average of more than one a week, including
the blazing oil wells of post-Gulf War Kuwait--Adair has sold
his business to Louisiana's Global Industries. The price? "I
can't count that high."
