While these sour truths seep in, the old Follies girls (De Carlo, Fifi d'Orsay, Mary McCarty) do their thing. Ethel Shutta siphons pure delight out of a number called Broadway Baby and reminds us, as do the others, of how much more verve, authority and presence the older stage professionals possessed than do many of their flaccid present-day counterparts.

In Massachusetts, 62 communities were warned by the state health department last year that their drinking water contained enough sodium to endanger the lives of people with heart or kidney ailments who were on strict low-salt diets. Tests in Minnesota disclosed that even the anticorrosive additives...

Because Suffolk's 1,200,000 residents depend on backyard cesspools and septic tanks, household wastes that do not break down in natureespecially detergentseventually seep into the underground water supply. As a result, more and more drinking water flows out of the tap with a smelly foam that tastes awful and perhaps affects human health...
