Earnings reports are not as complete a measure of corporate activity and efficiency as most people think they are. So said the accounting firm of Price Waterhouse & Co. last week. Reporting on the tax-accounting practices of 100 major U.S. corporations over a twelve-year period, Price Waterhouse Senior Partner Herman W. Bevis found that the 100 had tucked away $950,189,000 to cover deferred tax payments, but eventually paid out only $20 million of that amount. Thus, indicated Bevis, the true profits of the companies cited were actually about $930 million higher than reported...
Cottle found that middle-class dancing is characterized by "intimate aloneness," particularly in the woman. "Dressed in tight fitting stretch pants and sweater, she stations herself in a self-appointed precinct and moves to the delight of her partner and audience ... slowly undulating beneath soft lights, hands together behind her head, eyes closed, and sensuously involved in her private excitation...

Two hours later, the merrymakers danced off into the night-and now it was the San Francisco police department's turn to be surprised. At 3 a.m. cops answered...
...Laredos' Bach was in the best Rosalyn Tureck tradition. Eschewing the harpsichord for the piano, Mrs. Laredo played lid up and with plenty of pedal. As a pianist myself I have nothing against treating the instrument as a full partner in chamber music rather than a subservient accompanist--in fact I welcome it. But the Laredos' Bach did have severe balance problems. Mr. Laredo very quickly demonstrated a full, rich tone and an easy command of dynamics on the violin.
