...articles range from "Supermarket Management" ("You don't have to be a superwoman to be a supermarket manager, but it may help."), to "Wages for Housewives" which, in a comment one would only expect to find in Readers' Digest or Life Magazine, exclaims incredulously, "Some folks are beginning to suggest that women who stay at home and clean and cook and shop...should be considered 'working people...
...accountable only to its board of trustees (who elect their own successors), has rarely been eager to get involved in making sure that the scores from its tests are used properly. Although proposals for curbing, or at least monitoring, the power of ETS have gone so far as to suggest strict government regulation, it is, for the time being, up to schools and employers to take a critical view of the dubious significance of test scores in measuring or predicting anything other than a student's ability to take tests...

The festival is the most prestigious in the country-and, internationally, one of the most selective-so this year's slim pickings suggest that the surge in quality film making of the past few years has, at least for the moment, slowed down. The U.S. was represented by only a program of short films and an indignant, simplistic documentary about coal miners in Kentucky. Harlan County U.S.A. is well-meaning, and audiences responded...
