...other hand, some economists are suspicious of such pat theories. They argue that the economic future is not necessarily a precise reflection of the past, that steps have already been taken to keep expansion from getting out of hand. "One way to moderate a recession," says Chase...
...nobility and routing out all traces of pity for her, Rabb distorted the play out of all proportion. As Blanche, Cavada Humphrey fought a losing battle, and was the only cast member even to attempt mastering a Southern accent. Robert Blackburn's Stanley was not animalistic enough, but Chase Crosley made him a sweet wife. The best part of the production was the set, with its half dozen gaudy, flashing neon signs...
