SLIVERS OF TEXAN LIFE brighten Whorehouse: the cussin' sheriff, the corpulent mayor, the flunky-prostitute-turned-cafe-waitress, the hot-to-trot senator.

Disdained in past years as a private whalers' club that supports the estimated $650 million industry by setting excessively liberal whale-kill quotas (this year's total was 20,102), the IWC, under its youthful new chairman, Thordur Asgeirsson, 37, could do much this year to change...
