...this movie. Before she had been coltish and jagged, but with Women of the Year she entered a new class which she shares with no one. (When I think of her, I quell.) This was the first of her movies with Spencer Tracy. Their later works were wittier and smoother, but nowhere did the chemistry match the sexiness of this first picture which was made by MGM in 1942. Hepburn found the script by two young writers and tricked the knish-like despot who ran the studio, Louis B. Mayer, into paying a huge sum for the rights by inferring...
...miles a gallon (more if you pedal, less if you're heavy in the saddle). They are easy to maintain and emit almost no noxious fumes. Since they have automatic transmission, it should take only ten minutes' instruction to learn to operate them. They give a much smoother ride than a bike. Moreover, they are within almost anyone's budget, ranging from around $300 for the simplest model to more than $500 for one with all the trimmings, including telescopic front suspension, independent rear shock absorbers and speedometer...
Whatever happens, the suave, unflappable Sears has emerged as the most intriguing of the 1976 political campaign managers. Smoother and brighter than Ford's Rogers Morton and the departed Bo Callaway, far more seasoned and self-assured than Jimmy Carter's Hamilton Jordan, Sears is more a technician than an ideologue. This perhaps explains the Schweiker ploy: to Sears, Schweiker's potential influence on Northeast delegations was a plus that far outweighed the negatives of his liberal philosophy...
After ruling this site out, the scientists turned to a third site some 900 miles west-northwest of the original target area. Preliminary radar data suggested that the new landing zone is smoother than the other two, but Viking scientists wanted detailed photographs of the area before making a final decision. To get them, controllers at J.P.L. last week "tweaked" Viking's thrusters to bring the periapsis (low point) of its orbit directly over the new landing site. If the photographs confirm that Chryse Planitia is relatively smooth, Viking will land on July...
...devaluation as a defeat and will hold out as long as he can-with some reason. A drop in a currency's value makes imports more expensive. That aggravates inflation, which tends to weaken the currency still further. The floating-rate system has made adjustments in money values smoother and continuous; it has not made them painless...
