...notch cartoon creations. An evil-grinning feline called a Butterfly Stomper provides a hysterical 30 seconds of irrelevant wickedness; a flying glove proves a wonderfully Kafkasque weapon, and an anteater-cum-dinosaur happily devours everything in sight (including the frame background) by drawing it into his vacuum-cleaner snout. "So long, sucker," yells a Beatle as they escape. Nonetheless, the eclecticism of Edelmann's drawings disturbs as much as it captivates. The difficulty begins when it becomes hard to reconcile the different effects of Warhol-like silkscreen backgrounds, Vanderbeek photomontage, familiar comic strip characters, and Pepperland's Picasso thorny shrubs...
...scheduled for official unveiling between now and mid-September. The new year does not figure to be startling in its innovations. The Javelin's main rival as a conversation piece is likely to be Chevrolet's Corvette, which will feature a sleeker silhouette and a Ferrari-like snout. Mercury will introduce its new Montego, which will essentially be an elongated Comet. Dodge will add some curves to its slow-selling Charger. Such features as cover-up headlights will become even more familiar. And to comply with new federal regulations, the '68 cars will have smog-emission-control...
Shaving a Snout. Sometimes her fluffs are intentional: she deliberately let the hollandaise sauce curdle so that she could demonstrate the various ways of rescuing it.

But when she came to prepare the simple white sauce for it, she was almost undone...
Once in a long time she gets stymied. Her suckling-pig program is a famous example. First she explained the extraordinary preparations she had gone through: cleaning its ears and nostrils, shaving its snout, even brushing its teeth. Each step, using three pigs with two in reserve, went smoothly. Then came the time to carve. Using an electric knife-"It certainly sounds like a dentist, doesn't it?"-all went well until she reached the rlbs. They would not yield. She attacked with a huge chef's knife. Still no luck. Finally she put down the knife, rested...
...Walker Mark II, Formula IV, is not a new liquor. It's a car -- one of many on display at the New England international Automobile Show at the War Memorial Auditorium. About ten feet long and only two feet high and wide, bright red, tapering to a broad, flat snout, Johnny resembles a tongue kissing. As such, he is one of least sensual pieces in the show...
