...only hit, "Because The Night;" "Dancing Barefoot," in which she sings with more precision than she has yet managed; and "Broken Flag," a sweeping anthem to her curious idea of America. But even these tracks partake of the torpor that fills the rest of the record. During her last tour, Smith padded sheepishly around the stage and did her best to play cute. The music on Wave acts identically, and neither escapes with a shred of credibility...
...Udall committee's concern about nuclear power was based at least in part on a tour by some of the members of the crippled Pennsylvania plant last week. Three more human errors contributing to the accident were disclosed: 1) The operators not only shut off the auxiliary feed-water system two days before the accident but also mistakenly indicated on their check sheets that the water had been promptly restored.

He must make a good showing fast or he is almost sure to sink among all the contenders. At each stop Bush, lean, elegant and softspoken, handled the crowds with the easy grace of a Yankee patrician to the political manner born. His father, Prescott Bush, was a Senator from Connecticut from 1952 to 1962. George Bush went to Phillips...
