Last, but not always least, are House productions. These are a variable quantity; in general, the plays chosen by the Houses necessarily have a wider appeal than those at the Loeb, since each House production has to break even. While production values are uneven, the acting in the Houses is of as high a quality as you'll find elsewhere-in thz University. Another advantage is spontaneity--no need to buy tickets in advance, since there are no reserved seats. Once Upon a Mattress will be at Leverett this fall; look out also for Oscar Wilde's The Importance...
...Rainer's oeuvre--the first heady obsessions followed by a period of drift, and then a strong, clear push in a new direction. Rainer never directly analyzes the transformation from her early to late work, stating only that she hopes the changed tone of her writing demonstrates "my uneven development from intransigent artist-as-an-outraged-young-woman...
...netch) tallied three 10s in the team competition, two in the individual all-around contest, and two in the individual-apparatus competition-showings good enough to win her three gold medals, one silver and one bronze. Whether doing backflips on the beam or rocketing herself around the uneven bars, the deceptively frail-looking sprite (she watches her diet strictly-no junk food) was so much in her element that the audience had no more fear of her falling than of a fish drowning.

Notable Laggards. Most experts still do not foresee a repetition of the commodity price explosion of 1973-74. Then, the economies of major industrial states were all booming at the same time. Today the recovery is sufficiently uneven-Britain and Italy are notable laggards-to prevent the kind of frantic scramble for raw materials that went on three years ago. In addition, many commodity producers are still operating well below capacity and have room to expand output to fill demand. For example, production in copper-mining countries has been running about 15% below normal levels for more than a year...
...coaches because she was "alive," has advanced the sport of gymnastics as much as Olga popularized it. Frighteningly daring, she has developed a series of ultra-acrobatic moves that leave crowds gasping. The Salto Comaneci, to cite one, is a twisting, back-somersaulting dismount from the uneven parallel bars that one U.S. gymnast has a forthright word for: "Madness." Her derring-do, coupled with unusual stability in such difficult and dangerous moves as three back handsprings in a row on the beam, won her last year's European championship. (Korbut did not compete; Turishcheva was injured.) Comaneci has been...
