...McCANN LTD. LIVE AT SHELLY'S MANNE HOLE (Limelight). Infusing this album is that welcome but all-too-infrequent spirit -humor. McCann gives the injection willfully in She Broke My Heart (But I Broke Her Jaw), wittily in That Was the Freak That Was, and with downright homey good nature in How's Your Mother? For counterpoint, he gives his fans a sensitive and lyrical treatment of Young and Foolish, and a sort of half-pop, half-bop vocal on All Alone...
Pacifist Protest. Virtually ignoring the torrent of expensive wedding gifts, White House handouts played up the sentimental, homey and offbeat: from Uncle Tony Taylor in Texas, a set of six silver syllabub cups that had belonged to Grandmother Minnie Lee Patillo Taylor; Texas-shaped cookie cutters from Mrs. Jake Pickle, wife of the Congressman who holds L.B.J.'s old seat; from Mrs. Orville Freeman, a jeweled Pakistani nose ring, symbolizing female submission to her mate (who, vows the bride, will never become "Mister Luci Johnson"). The bipartisan House leadership took up a collection for a congressional gift, but Iowa...
Some futurists like to make predictions about homey details of living. The kitchen, of course, will be automated. An A.D. 2000 housewife may well make out her menu for the week, put the necessary food into the proper storage spaces, and feed her program to a small computer. The experts at Stanford Research Institute visualize mechanical arms getting out the preselected food, cooking and serving it. Similarly programmed household robots would wash dishes, dispose of the garbage (onto a conveyer belt moving under the street), vacuum rugs, wash windows, cut the grass.

...students. On the other hand, the budget must be balanced, and the students that cost the most should pay the most. Those girls that "don't want to have anything to do with the dorms," as one Cliffie stated, should not forget that their ability to live in a homey atmosphere is currently financed at a loss to the College and that, if the College is to function, the off-campus residents must pay proportionately more for their domestic advantages...
...reality means to include such images; so what is more logical than to tuck a TV screen into a painting. Or at least so thinks Tom Wesselmann, 34, who fiddles with the girl who doesn't exist, the supersex symbol, the Great American Nude, and sets her in homey seraglio scenes decorated with real radiators. Lift the Venetian blind, and there is a calendar painting of a Japanese harbor. Or, as in one recent Nude, the whole scene is stamped out of multicolored translucent plastic and glows from within by electric lights...
