...robots. GM alone accounts for 40% of U.S. demand for the devices; last year, when the No. 1 automaker killed a major program intended to build plastic-bodied cars, it canceled about $100 million in orders for robots and support equipment. That was bad news for GMF Robotics of Troy, Mich., the nation's biggest robotmaker (1986 sales: $186 million). GMF, a joint venture of GM and Fanuc, Japan's largest robotics firm, has cut its work force to 400 people, 60% of what it was two years...

Artistic Director Lloyd Richards. As his interpretation has ripened, Jones has found not only Troy Maxson's destructive fury but also his belly-shaking laughter, his lyric love of tall tales, his quicksilver charm, his stoic sense of duty and honor. & He manages to be at once real and of mythic proportions. The cast around him is also adroit, notably Mary Alice as his long...
