...Delicatessen Window. Everding has mounted one of those productions in which the actors don't act but the scenery does. Wagner's two lovers live in an emotional realm of their own, encountering calamity only when they have to reconcile ecstasy with reality. Everding has them floating off into their own dreamworld during passionate scenes, returning to earth when other people are around. In a starkly symbolic setting where nothing is real, it might have worked. But in this production, both world and dreamworld look equally realistic. Nothing fuses...

Dictatorship and Delicatessen. Sir Lew's orbit extends far beyond Britain. He was one of the first to see the potential in filmed TV programs-as opposed to live ones-shot relatively cheaply in Britain and syndicated around the world.

Glut of Longhairs. Ghostwriting on a modest scale has been a campus ploy for many years. But turning the practice into big business has taken men of vision like Ward Warren, 22, a senior at Babson College near Boston. Last fall Warren sank $25,000-earned in the delicatessen and the snack bar he owns-into Termpapers Unlimited. He now says that he is close to breaking even.
