While the U.S. garment industry has been going through some dark days, both literally and figuratively, the early spring and resort-wear fashions for 1984 now on display in designer showrooms are the brightest and boldest in several seasons. America's fashion pacesetters are counting on the economic recovery to make women more confident and carefree when they shop for clothes. A year ago, in the midst of the recession, muted pastel tones dominated the top designers' collections, but now the lines shine with brassy shades of red, blue and green. In the way they...
...Magaril and choreographer Sabrina Peck simply fill it. Good blocking spreads actors to keep the open spaces under control. The full-company numbers sparkles with movement, much of it painstakingly researched to mirror actual on-the-job motions, an astonishing proportion of it in synch.

...would have left all effective economic control in the hands of the state. If the government enacted its own bill, Solidarity threatened to boycott the law and "carry out the reforms in our own way." Another militant resolution called for free elections to the parliament. But by far the boldest act was a declaration, which took Walesa by surprise, encouraging the workers of Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union to "struggle for free and independent unions." Moscow called the act "openly provocative and impudent," as 100,000 Soviet troops staged maneuvers on the Polish border...
