...ceremonies a few months ago. Or to describe how, on the set of Stab, "I just couldn't get a scene right. The dialogue seemed false. I got madder and madder because I knew the answer lay within me, but I couldn't wrestle it up. I sulked all day???something I never did before. There's a lot of tension toward the end of a film, because the answers have to be there...
...have some differences, however. Careful though Bush was not to attack Reagan personally during the primaries?the only thing he did to emphasize the contrast between Reagan's 69 years and his own 56 was to brag endlessly that he jogs two or three miles a day???Bush did lash heartily into some of Reagan's positions.

Imports are running about 8 million bbl. a day???roughly half of U.S. consumption, up 3% just since late April ?but oilmen estimate that they need an other 500,000 to 1 million to assure an even flow of all products through their refineries. The prime reason for the shortage is that the other members of OPEC have never increased production enough to make up for the curtailment of supplies from Iran. The situation raises two questions: 1) Which products should be rushed...
