...sponsor is left mainly with a choice of how to inject the laughs. Some shows, e.g., Lucy, December Bride, Phil Silvers, are filmed before a live audience whose real laughter is recorded with the show itself. Then the film's sound track is judiciously "sweetened": coughs are erased, idiot giggles toned down, chuckles reinforced and silences sprinkled with gaiety. Another common technique, used by Jack Benny, Burns & Allen, the Bob Cummings Show and Private Secretary, is to film the show without spectators, then show the film to a movie-house audience monitored by microphones.

Boston College seems to inject into ailing Harvard basketball teams a special enthusiasm and determination to win. Last year the Eagles kindly ended a Crimson eight game losing streak, and in addition, allowed the varsity to set an I.A.B. scoring record of 93 points...

This setting, which is of course less complex than its Elizabethan model, presents its own problem to the director, who must compress the play's flow into two acting areas in place of the original six.

...first time the United States and Russia can work together. Because of the momentarily transformed relations between Russia and the United States which this crisis has wrought, things are not as hopeless as they might have been. An excellent opportunity presents itself to remold world alignments, to inject an element of mutual confidence into world diplomacy, and to strengthen the United Nations. Poland and Hungary have shown that bipolar conception of contemporary world history no longer fits the facts. Russian support of the United States in the United Nations has buoyed this hope.
