...overrun of $4.9 million for the plan. The Harvard HMO was forced to boost its premium 18% over last year's level. About a half-dozen other HMOs around the country are experiencing similar difficulties. On balance, however, periodic jumps in HMO premiums seem far preferable to the relentless annual cost accelerations that nonmembers by the millions seem doomed to endure...

He might have had a chance if he had banned Spielberg from the set. But Spielberg had chosen the cast and locations and "storyboarded" the film-devised sketches that approximated virtually every scene the director would shoot. "My taking over had less...
