<p> GENEROUS RETIREE OF THE WEEK: EVERARD BIERER
</p>
<p> The 84-year-old former Pan Am pilot and stock-market
investor tried to get his fellow retirees to pony up $1 million
to help save the struggling airline. When no one would chip in,
Bierer wrote his own check for $400,000, which the company will
use to buy pilot-training computers.
