...range of a concert virtuoso, for Hamlet is both gentle and brutal, passionate and detached, slow to act yet violent in action-a volatile tangle of will, thought, word and deed.

He portrays a computer's Hamlet, mechanically feeding himself punch cards marked Father's Ghost, Ophelia, Laertes, Horatio, Polonius, Claudius, Gertrude, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and responding mechanically to them.

Marcona Mining Co. plans to triple the capacity of its $20 million iron-ore pelletizing plant on Peru's southern coast; Southern Peru Copper Corp. is investing $16 million for improvements; and the king of the mountain, Cerro de Pasco Corp., has just earmarked $18 million to expand its $270 million mining complex. Next month General Motors will open a $5,000,000 assembly plant outside Lima, the first of 15 automakers, including Chrysler and Ford, that intend to settle in Peru...
