...flawless cast plays superbly off of Lemmon, especially Robert Picardo as Jud. Unafraid of being charmless or unendearing, Picardo gives a wiry, courageous performance which ultimately wins us over and holds its own against his formidable stage father. Director Arthur Storch provides one of the smoothest, cleanest pieces of staging I have ever seen--he also invokes splendid, precise comic timing from the entire cast. William Ritman's split-level set is sheer genius, both aesthetically and thematically. Like Scottie, it has something for everyone: paneled walls, lots of framed photos, ultra-modern but ultra-comfortable furniture, all in attractive...
...importance goes far beyond that. Its discovery indicates that a major new gas-exploration effort in the Tuscaloosa Sand geological formation of southern Louisiana is hitting pay zones. That promises new production not only for Louisiana but for an energy-hungry nation that counts natural gas as both its cleanest-burning and most critically scarce fuel. Last week the Louisiana Office of Conservation estimated that gas reserves in the Tuscaloosa Sand may reach 3 trillion cu. ft. That would be equal to 86% of last year's production in Louisiana, which leads the nation in gas output...
...Inaugural parade, Jimmy Carter's reviewing stand was warmed by a specially constructed solar heating unit as a demonstration of his dedication to the cleanest and most abundant energy source available within existing technology. The energy package will provide federal funds for accelerated research leading to solar electrical generation. It will also give income tax credits up to $2,000 to homeowners who install solar heating units...
...steam through underground lines. The main fuel in Russia is-weep, amerikantsy-natural gas, piped from Soviet Central Asia and Siberia. (The Soviet Union has one-fourth of the world's natural-gas reserves, but has instituted a widespread fuel-conservation program nonetheless.) Because natural gas is the cleanest-burning fuel of all, there is no air pollution...
...city hires directly, 80 per cent got their jobs through political connections. This figure does not include another 33,000 policemen, firemen and Board of Education personnel, many of whom also got their positions through a "sponsor." Even though I was only a summer intern in City Hall's "cleanest" department, seven fellow workers asked me who my "sponsor" was. Although I had none, I had to admit it didn't hurt any being related to Howlett...
