...peasant-outfitted musicians on Broadway here sounds like corny, department-store Muzak. The costumes, surprisingly, are the most professional element of the show; clearly, a lot of money has been spent on them.

Chrysler hopes that brisk orders will make up for a turndown in sales for its compact Aspen and Volare models. At 30 m.p.g., the Omni and Horizon exceed federal fuel economy standards for 1985, thus putting Chrysler in a good position for taking direct aim at Japanese competition (Toyota, Datsun) and Volkswagen's Rabbit, which will begin rolling off a VW-built assembly line in Pennsylvania in April...
