...that any tinkering with the economy-such as a tax cut in the U.S. or further increases in West German interest rates-will only make the situation worse, and it advises policymakers to sit tight. Their main priority, the OECD advises, should be to reduce oil imports. Says John Fay, head of the OECD's economic department: "We have a long road of rather slow growth ahead...
...incident typified Harvard's intimidating, quick-checking defensive play. Haywood Miller was particularly effective in shutting down the Wildcats' lone offensive superstar, John Fay. Fay scored only once all afternoon, and that tally came midway through the second period with Miller sitting in the penalty box for slashing. Yesterday's scoring: By periods: 1 2 3 4 Harvard 2 5 1 3--11 UNH 2 3 1 0--6 Individual scoring: HARVARD G A pts.

...scale--and part of the film's charm lies in the breathless sense of discovery that infuses every shot, heightened with each passing reel.

Marilyn Redfield's Jennie remains disappointingly one-dimensional, never conveying anything more than her character's chipper exterior. As Faye, Jane A. Johnston delivers her lines well, but not well enough to overcome a case of physical miscasting. Jennie's friend should be in the prime of beauty; Johnston's appearance makes Fay rather frowsy...
Henry Fonda, as a relatively benign Southern aristocrat, breaks down and calls his son (Richard Thomas) a nigger when the boy marries a black (Fay Hauser). Paul Winfield, as a black college president, puts on a humiliating minstrel act to raise money from a socialite philanthropist (Dina Merrill). Ossie Davis and Brock Pe ters turn up as, respectively, a Pull man porter and a sharecropper, who risk their jobs to fight for economic equality. In his first TV performance, Marlon Brando appears in the final episode as American Nazi Party Leader George Lincoln Rockwell...
