...Harvard stage as Carr, Milo's chum, and the only regret about his part is that it is too short. William Leach brings a kind of manic power and an eloquent voice to Judge Gaunt, and Donald James Campbell renders an eerie, effective portrait of Shadow, the underworld sidekick. Unfortunately, his boss, John Britt as Trock, just about chews the scenery in his overcooked attempt to play the heavy.

Its executive director is Lyn Nofziger, a longtime Reagan sidekick, and its steering committee sports almost every key Reagan adviser from the '76 campaign, including Campaign Manager John Sears. So far the committee has added about $250,000 in contributions, to be distributed to conservative candidates for Congress and state offices next year...
