...more interesting than the course catalogue, and a lot more informative. The Confi-Guide tells you what a course is about, how well it is taught, how difficult it is, and whether the work load is going to cut a hole in your love life. Better still, the Confi-Guide is written by students who have lived through the courses, not the administration or the faculty. It's like having 100 upperclassmen advisers...
...orchestras because of his intense dislike for the attendant administrative and social duties. In America, he has been known primarily for his 23 years as a guest conductor with the Chicago Symphony. Los Angeles won him by offering freedom from paper work, a lighter-than-usual five-month load, and a blank check.

Clouseau still mucks up his vowel sounds and takes a good many falls, but Edwards doesn't labor these gags as much as he did last time. One can hardly call him restrained, but he's comparatively restrained. Admittedly, the plot is harebrained and the climax, set in a fireworks factory, fizzles, but there...
