...role in the advisory effort so far stands in contrast to that of fellow science policy task force member Harvey Brooks, McKay Professor of Applied Physics...
...played a key role in setting up the F.A.S.B. But the company also has long been an aggressive maverick. Some competitors grumble privately that it is merely seeking publicity, and Price Waterhouse's brief publicly refers to "Andersen's past attacks on the accounting profession." Andersen Chairman Harvey E. Kapnick Jr. protests that his company is merely trying to preserve the profession's right to set its own rules, free from Government interference. Some of his colleagues fear that Andersen is inviting the very Government dictation it professes to abhor. If the SEC cannot expect compliance with...
...keep its engagement in Montreal, leaving Don Quarrie, a current world record holder, in the race. In, too, was Trinidad's Hasely Crawford, 25, who won the 100-yard dash for Eastern Michigan University in last year's NCAA Championships.

As usual in Altman's films, the minor characters are hilariously venal, conning themselves relentlessly, the better to con the public. The film's best running gag has Geraldine Chaplin as sharpshooting Annie Oakley, sniping closer, ever closer to Frank Butler, her husband, who must hold her targets steady while fighting against growing fear...
