...their bizarre, plastic intricacies, Williams presents them as simple, symbolic monoliths, usually from only one perspective. The Revolutionary attempts no overview (literal or figurative) of society, portraying it with an austere, dialectical frontality. At one point after deserting from the army. A. goes into a strange town to warn that troops are coming and ends up talking for several moments into a stark, dimly-lit building occupied by militants, a surreal scene of paranoia and alienation, in which he is finally sent away without seeing beyond the facade...
...Radio frequencies emitted by the ground-base guidance radar can be changed quickly so that the radar operator can continue to track the target aircraft on his scope in spite of the "noise." Of course, sensors in the ECM pod instantly detect this switch in hostile radar frequency and warn the pilot, who can then resume jamming by a frequency shift...
Heath expanded the "shopping-basket campaign," as Tories now called it, to warn that the whole nation might again have trouble making ends meet. Wilson's "sunshine economy" could not last, he warned. If Labor was elected, there would be another "freeze and squeeze" on wages and profits. "That's life with Labor. Four years squeeze and four months sunshine," Heath told crowds.

In Washington, the U.S. Navy flatly denied that any U.S. ships had been operating in the area...
...YEARBOOK'S editors have relied heavily on interviewing this year to get across substantive issues, and the result should warn them against repeating the technique next year. Most of the interview texts are way too long-particularly a multi-page monster with Laurence Senelick, director of HARPO. The book opens with a few pages of comments by Adam Ulam, professor of Government, and Reuben A. Brower, professor of English, who are asked to compare today's students with their ancestors of the early sixties. Their replies produce little of interest, but some of Brower's remarks are worth looking over...
