Stroheim presents the characters and settings of each shot as directly as possible. Actors rarely overlap one another; all are fully visible; yet he saves his shots from being flat tableaux by placing his actors at different distances from the camera and by enhancing their different depths with lighting. The way he places his "realistic" objects similarly use depth. Prominent natural objects in the foreground play off objects in the background to make the space of each shot real and three-dimensional...
...Wolff Report acknowledges, the McCloskey plan assumes that the overlap between scholarship holders and teaching fellows is great although there are not enough statistics to prove it. If it is not large, the money might again have to be taken from the Faculty budget...
...WHILE THERE are great areas of overlap between Mumford's cause and the New Left's, there are important differences as well. To a large degree they are differences of style and experience, but precisely for that reason they are revealing of Mumford himself. Mumford is highly critical of the young for their arrogance in ignoring history. The impatience of the young, he feels, is just another manifestation of push-button mentality, which expects rewards in seconds. "Change," says Mumford, "takes experiment. It can't come overnight. This is the one thing I'm against." History teaches this lesson...
Performers were carefully scheduled on each stage so as not to overlap, by catering to people's different tastes (thus Steppenwolf on one stage while Joni Mitchell was playing at the other, Ian and Sylvia in the meadow while Iron Butterfly played the grandstand) though even with diligent shuttling from stage to stage I inevitably missed some performances. This kind of sensible planning on the part of the Festival organizers marked most aspects of the three day show. Facilities were thoughtfully and adequately provided: free parking, food stalls, seating, elaborate and powerful sound systems. Not to mention the whimsical diversions...
Proper Credit. Blough sought to improve U.S. Steel's fortunes largely by paring its work force, consolidating its sprawling divisions and ending a costly overlap of sales offices. More recently he has loosened the purse strings in a somewhat belated effort to renew the company's plants. As part of a threeyear, $1.8 billion spending program that began in 1966, U.S. Steel has installed ten oxygen furnaces, is now phasing in one of the world's biggest continuous casting lines at Gary, Ind. It has also abandoned its lofty refusal to cut prices to meet foreign competition...
