...Instead of the Indian that appears on our Massachusetts state seal, it would be more appropriate to have a state official with his amply greased hand outstretched. The title of your article, "Corruption Is Commonplace" [May 15], would be a good substitute for our state motto. Nothing is more fitting...
Gentle Handling. Magneform is already doing many useful jobs: aluminum and copper are being joined to porcelain insulators for outdoor wiring; the metal bands around artillery shells are being fitted quickly without any fuss. The auto industry is using Magneform to produce ball-joint and seal assemblies for front suspensions. Magne-form's principal advantage over welding, pressing or stamping is its ability to shape metals without the rough handling that such operations ordinarily require. Automated assembly-line operation can be managed easily, and Magneform men are already looking toward the day when most subsidiary parts of an auto...
...plays are filled with far more legalese than Shakespeare's-but the Bard's characters have as effective counsel as any. Henry IVs plotters do not just plan to split their loot (the realm); like law clerks, they aver that "our indentures tripartite are drawn" and "sealed interchangeably."

In Sonnet 46, a fair lady is partitioned-her lover's heart the plaintiff, his eye the defendant. In Henry VI, Part II, Jack Cade promises to "make...

Parading back to cavernous Woolsey Hall, Brewster received the ancient symbols of presidential office: the 1701 manuscript of the original Yale Charter, the school seal of 1722, and the brass keys to the university. Windup of the weekend was a grand ball at the turtle-shaped Ingalls hockey rink, where guests, faculty and the presidential couple sipped punch and danced the night away as two bands played music to be inaugurated...
...world by supplying her own banana peels to slip on. Her face is a choppy sea of doubletalk, and her talk tries to take back what her face just said. She is an anthology of the awkward graces, all knees and elbows, or else a boneless wonder, a seal doing an unbalancing act. All her devices are attention-getting devices and point astutely to the gnawing doubt of self at the heart of clowning. Barbra Streisand could be a gawkish version of Charlie Chaplin's Tramp, except that all the Tramp usually wanted was a full bowl of soup...
