Wolfe, were he alive, might well say the same of Minority Report. Not only does Rice exhibit an astonishingly tin ear for dialogue; his autobiographical e frequently reads like a parody of all the memoirs ever written. "We had what is now known as a cookout, with Mrs. Roosevelt, in a bungalow apron toasting the frankfurters over a charcoal grill. When her son Elliott shouted 'Hey, Ma, we're all out of beer!' she replied sharply, 'You know there's always enough beer! Just look around for it!' It was a domestic scene that...
Toys were once merely fun. Now they are considered "essential aids to child development." Newest, put on display last week at Manhattan's Toy Guidance Exhibit, is a magnetized doll-house ($15) raised on stilts and inhabited by a family of lifelike dolls. Any bright little girl can move the dolls by manipulating a magnetic wand underneath the floor. "It's a new concept," explained Exhibit Director Mrs. Janet Freud (whose father-in-law claims kinship to Sigmund). "Now the child can control Mama and Papa.

First of the trio to face the five red-robed judges at Karlsruhe was stocky Hans Clemens, 61, who peered with interest at an exhibit table covered with the tools of his trade: cameras, tape recorders, microscopes, radios, films and suitcases with secret compartments.

He looks right for Henry, but he does not (despite the use of a following spotlight) exhibit the dazzling aureole the part needs. His diction is clear and pleasant, but his voice is not always equal to the task given. Before the siege of Harfleur, his "Once more unto the breach" harangue does not ring as it ought; it is a clarinet instead of a clarion...
Yglesias has nothing more profound to exhibit than his sensitivity for familial relationships-full of humor and bathos and love. The old sisters yak-yak away like a Greek chorus about their lives, their children and their hopes. "Let us not dig up old regrets," Dolores tells her sisters just before little Jimmy's wake begins. "There are too many of them, and we shall end up fighting for the biggest share. Let us remind ourselves of all the wonderful things in life, for in a moment we shall have to go inside and look into his face...
