...police are losing the fight against lawlessness, which will cost $20 billion this year in thefts, riot damage and other losses, has steadily increased the business of suppliers of private guards and security equipment. But most of the thrust is toward providing new, nonlethal hardware for the police, whose basic gun-and-billy-club arsenal has changed little in 100 years...
...Chemical Mace, the liquid-tear-gas spray. Sales of law-enforcement equipment now account for about 9% of the Bangor Punta's $259 million annual sales and 30% of its $22 million pre-tax profits. The company broke into the market in 1965 by acquiring Smith & Wesson, whose revolvers are carried by 85% of the nation's policemen.

Tamara Long, as the slinky heavy, brandishes a flaming Morganitic torch for her Mister Man, and Sally Stark, as Ruby's peroxided pal, belts a note almost as plangent as the great Merman's. The comic delight of the show, though, is Bernadette Peters, whose Ruby can simultaneously sing and dance up a storm that puts all New York (including Queen Mane of Rumania) at her feet. She can also lament her unrequited love with a tear that streaks mascara down her cheek in a lugubrious perfection of timing...
