...Deaver began collecting ideas for the State of the Union speech in November, and the President took a preliminary draft to California on his end-of-year vacation. Reagan and his aides have been extensively rewriting ever since. As of last week, the draft contained blank spaces for new bud-jet figures and proposals. Nonetheless, Reagan took 33 min. to deliver it in a preliminary run-through and told advisers: 'I want to sweat it down some more." He is aiming at 25 to 28 min.

By Gerber's of Atlanta. By Graeter's of Cincinnati. By Bud's of San Francisco. By Vivoli's of Berkeley. By (whisper its name) Bailey's of Boston, which takes no notice of the new superpremium trend because it has been serving only the best since 1873, thank you very much, and which serves its sundaes in silver-plated...
