...Viola, who spends almost the whole play disguised as the pageboy Cesario, we have Lynn Redgrave, attired in an aquamarine suit and sporting a head of short red hair. She brings a surprisingly forceful voice and a sure comic instinct. It is fun to watch her lapse from her assumed machismo--as when, on exclaiming of Olivia, "She loves me sure," she girlishly claps her hands over her face, or repeatedly swoons at the prospect of having to duel with Sir Andrew.

...posts at the high level of Assistant Secretary. Now three such positions remain vacant, and few people seem willing to undergo the months of congressional scrutiny and cross-examination that have become standard for anybody willing to take a job in a policymaking area as contentious as energy. Example: Lynn Coleman, once a partner in John Connally's Houston law firm, which has oil industry clients, waited eight months until the suspicious, supercautious Senate finally approved his nomination as DOE general counsel. Schlesinger has not yet submitted the names of candidates for Assistant Secretaries for Defense Programs...

...Lester Tobin, a physician in Lynn, Mass., paid premiums on a homeowners' policy and had a spotless record for 20 years. Three years ago he switched to Royal Globe Insurance Co., and since then he has collected $2,275 on three claims-two for water damage caused by heavy rains, one for a robbery. This year Royal Globe refused to renew the policy. After Tobin's agent made a personal appeal, it renewed, but for only one year, and it raised his deductible from...
