...pretrial hearing in a murder case, the judge relented and allowed David Lord, a reporter from the Keene Evening Sentinel, to sit in. King insisted, however, that the newspaper's lawyer, Ernest L. Bell III, sit next to the reporter, telling him what he could and could not write. If anything prejudicial to the defendant appeared in the newspaper, the judge warned, Bell would be subject to discipline. When the hearing resumed, Bell rose and told the judge he had "more important things to do" than censor his client's reporter, but the judge replied, "Not this afternoon...
...portrayed by Pat Carroll in this one-woman show at Greenwich Village's Circle Repertory, Gertrude is domineering, boastful and vain.

After all, if the tests are public, the service won't be able to recycle questions, forcing someone to sit down every year to write new analogies. Considering the amount of money "non-profit" ETS clears each year, though, the added costs of questions, mailings and even Xerox copies shouldn't force them out of business. ETS's real fear may be that scrutiny will be to standardized tests as hurricanes are to the Dominican Republic. Public availability...
