...positions on medicare, labor-management relations, and nuclear control. Named to the seat of the late Senator Claire Engle, Salinger will be listed as the incumbent on the November ballot. He hopes this will dissipate the image of carpetbagging, which has, since RFK plnged into New York politics, cur Salinger's lead in the polls from 65 to 55 per cent. Salinger also enjoys the advantage of California's 3 to 2 Democratic edge in voter registration. The registration figures are, however, deceptive, since many conservative and moderate Democrats regularly cross party lines...
...Peru, Venezuela, and the three Guianas, British, Dutch and French (see map). According to the Population Reference Bureau, an independent, nonprofit organization based in Washington, D.C., these nine countries are growing at an average rate of 3.2% each year, compared with about 2% for India and Red China. At cur rent rates, their 121 million population will double by 1986; in 100 years something like 3.8 billion people will be fighting for survival in the area's inhospitable mountain ranges, jungles and deserts...

The ushers snatched the offending programs back from his dressing room at the final cur tain and passed them out to the departing crowd. Thus those whose ears had not already informed them that Giuseppe is not the peer of Corelli learned it on the way home...
...anti-adman jokes--but Morey is at his best ridiculing Socratic sophistry, New Critics, and weary old critics. Unfortunately, Mr. Morey has made his towns folk tiresomely stock and sappy (the female romantic lead is called "the Romantic Lead"), perhaps for good reason, but with--as some weary old cur might say in the Trib--exceedingly mixed results. The players therefore have burdensome problems of pace and timing thrust on their somewhat frail shoulders, which either Mr. Morey or his director (was there a director?) ought to have lightened. Lovely Susan Schwartz as the Romantic Lead struggles womanfully but neither...
