Pinter also eavesdrops. His "Experiment" sketches, shown in animation, were ideal eavesdropping situations: a foreman reporting to his jovial boss; a bus queue enlivened by a quarrel; an earnest job applicant getting the works. Thus summarized the sketches sound unexciting, but they completely engaged the viewers' attention, and were beautifully interspersed with filmed shots of London and Londoners-old ladies gossiping, Thames bargemen clowning when the camera was on them, swinging birds in a discotheque...
Incriminating Statements. Orozco was accused of shooting down another man after a quarrel outside a Dallas bar back in 1966. He later returned to his boardinghouse and went to sleep. At about 4 a.m., four policemen burst into the room and began to question him.

...Leonard Fein of Boston's Joint Center for Urban Studies believes that some Jews have responded to anti-Semitism in a slightly paranoic manner?although, he adds, "we come by our paranoia honestly." By and large, Negro moderates argue that Jews have overreacted. They contend that the Negroes' real quarrel is with the racism of white society as a whole. Thus in New York the Jew is singled out as a visible symbol of oppression; but in New Orleans, the black's natural "enemy" is the Italian bourgeoisie, which predominates among ghetto store owners, and in San Francisco...
