...Craig Claiborne, publisher of a private food newsletter and former New York Times food critic: "The hamburgers are quite swallowable. There is a highly compatible onion flavor. The French fries are first-rate; they are made in fresh fat and are crisp. I do think they could put more pickle on the hamburger. Overall, I would rank them on a par with Howard Johnson's hamburgers...
...Loyalists-led by the Rev. Ian Paisley and former Home Affairs Minister William Craig-refuse to share any significant political power with Northern Ireland's 500,000 Catholics, who make up one-third of the population. Brian Faulkner, on the other hand, has pledged that his Unionists would be willing to work with some Catholics. A coalition of his party with the S.D.L.P. and the Alliance would have strength enough to control the committees that will rule on many day-today matters for the province...
...American Family. Craig Gilbert and his camera crew were given permission to film the Loud family, sort of "Californian Kennedys", and the results are fascinating and controversial. According to the filmmakers, the footage was edited with no bias in mind, and it has been the reviewer's experience that the program brings out the worst in the viewer rather than in the subjects.

Hard-Liners. Altogether, 210 candidates are representing a total of 17 party labels. Four groups, however, merit special watching. On the Protestant side, there are the long-dominant Unionists, led by Faulkner, and the more militant Loyalists, whose leaders include such hard-liners as William ("King Billy") Craig and the Rev. Ian Paisley. On the Catholic side, there is the Social, Democratic and Labor Party. (The outlawed Provisional wing of the Irish Republican Army is not, of course, taking part in the elections; it has urged all Catholics to boycott them.) Somewhat in the middle, trying to establish a nonsectarian...
...militant Loyalists. Convinced that the new assembly represents a British sellout of Protestant Ulster-men, the Loyalists are determined to make it fail. Speaking from the back of a Union Jack-draped truck in Portadown last week, King Billy Craig declared: "For four years now, we have had defeat after defeat, humiliation after humiliation. The only thing that is really left to lose is Ulster itself." Faulkner, in turn, has attacked the Loyalist leaders for consorting with the extremist paramilitary Ulster Defense Association. Craig and Paisley, he says, have "bloodstains on their joint program...
