...Bare Glimmer. But the long-term outlook is far from bright. Bond interest rates are still high by any historic standards, and utilities will be saddled for years with the cost of payments on loans secured at 1974's lofty rates. Profits have improved partly because utilities have cut borrowing and construction costs by pulling back expansion plans. As of early this year, cancellations or postponements had trimmed the prospective generating capacity of nuclear power plants on utilities' drawing boards by about 65%, and the projected capacity of non-nuclear plants by around 40%.

...least it never came to this in those old Rock Hudson and Doris Day pictures. Long an abstainer from film nudity, Hudson will bare more than his sparkling teeth in Embryo, a new movie directed by Ralph Nelson.

There are sadistic assaults on prepubescent black girls and a good deal of bother about incest. James Mason, as the plantation's Old Massah, must spend much time with his bare feet pressed into a prostrate black child's naked stomach because the doctor has assured the old man that this is a sovereign cure for his rheumatism. In the end all the white principals are required to exterminate one another in expiation of their sins. The final bloodbath...
