Ford seems to understand this and he is clinging to his old lifestyle. He uses Sir Walter Raleigh pipe tobacco, sometimes out of a can. After Daughter Susan and Photographer David Kennerly gave Ford his new pup, Liberty, the President stuffed some dog biscuits into his pockets. As plain folks know, the new master of a golden retriever should pass out the rewards and feed the dog for a few weeks. The President is going to have crummy pockets for a while, and when the White House cook gives Ford his English muffins in the morning, Ford is going...

...There is, for example, a German critic's claim that the rock against which the little traveler in Landscape with Rainbow (circa 1809) is leaning is really "the symbol of faith" and that his hat on the ground is "a sign of humility." But often the symbolism is plain enough, as in a well-known picture usually called The Wreck of the "Hope" (circa 1822).

Angie Dickinson, as Sergeant "Pepper" Anderson on NBC'S Police Woman (Friday, 10 p.m. E.D.T.), is at least permitted to be just not-so-plain Angie, and any program that allows this attractive, good-humored actress to be her familiar self cannot be all bad. The regular supporting cast, headed by Earl Holliman, is competent, and the action sequences are crisp.
