...this dramatic universe, is so insubstantially summoned up by Topol that he is outshone and outdone by the secondary heavenly bodies. He seems to revolve around them. Topol, who last loped in Fiddler on the Roof, has a sort of toothy ingenuousness that gives Galileo an unfortunate puppy-dog quality. Topol misses the role's strength, both in character and intellect. Most of the actors around him, however, are superb: John Gielgud, Margaret Leighton, Edward Fox, Patrick Magee, John McEnery...
Skiers, skaters and snowmobile jockeys have inflated the audience for winter weather. A smaller, more select group of frosted sportsmen also follows snow bulletins with fascination: the men who hitch Huskies to light wood rigs and mush across wilderness trails in sled-dog races. From the White Mountains of New Hampshire through the Upper Midwest snow belt to Alaska, a cadre of dog sledders has been reviving the arcane sport for thrills and profit. TIME Correspondent Richard Woodbury visited Ely, Minn., to cover the Sixth All-American Sled-Dog Championships. His report...
...bearing such names as "Ozzie's Huskies" and "Polar Bear Kennels"-trekked into Ely (pop. 5,000) for the biggest weekend of the year.

The "Fred Hampton contingent, one of the many groups reaching today, is huddled about some low concrete stands on the far side of a baseball diamond. Murdered in 1969 by the F.B.I. and the Chicago police Fred Hampton, a Black Panther leader advocated a class...
...records are of more uneven quality than the movie. The creative, at times even poignant, animation sequences of the film are replaced by music arranged by Neil Innes, once the presiding Bonzo of the Bonzo Dog Band. The music is catchy in its own right, including stirring versions of John Wesley's setting of Blake's "And Did Those Feet," and the original classics "I'm a Lumberjack and I'm OK" (with a chorus of Royal Canadian Mounted Police in the background), "Eric the Half-a-Bee" and "The Lupin Express...
