...opening frames of A Matter of Time, Liza Minelli is seen riding in a car, gazing pensively at her visage in a hand-held mirror. If the car were to drive off the nearest cliff, you'd be spared what follows--a series of moronic reflections on the mirror's history, featuring Liza and Ingrid (she ain't getting any younger) Bergman. You'd be better off driving yourself down I-95 to look at the fall foliage...

Take for example Radcliffe's one-sided routs over Tufts (4-0), Cornell (3-0) and Wheaton (3-0), and the cliff-hangers over powerful squads from Bates (2-1), Dartmouth (3-2), and Northeastern (2-1), contests in which the Crimson stick women demonstrated an amazing knack for doing what had to be done when a game was on the line...

One of the great significant changes has been the Southern blacks who have been voting nearly 100 per cent for liberals like Jimmy Carter, Gov. Reubin Askew of Florida, Sen. Dale Bumpers of Arkansas, and Gov. Cliff Finch of Mississippi. Southern Democrats now often look on a coalition of poor and working class whites and blacks as the central constituency of their party. Uncomfortable with the "New South" Democrats, the corporate establishment in most of the region has joined up with the Republicans, potentially setting...
