...favorable comment or made no objections." ABC claims that viewer letters have "virtually all been in favor" (though "a substantial number have objected" to the prolixity of Press-Box Pundit Howard Cosell). A piddling 4% of the sample reported domestic disagreement over whether to watch the game. Anxious to exploit even that minor discord, NBC has fought back by programming specials with TV's No. 1 draw, Bob Hope, and with "female-oriented" movies (this week Lady L, a Romain Gary romance starring Paul Newman and Sophia Loren). If nothing else, NBC-or CBS-can hope to capture...
...party, especially if Democrats seriously hope to revive the New Deal coalition. Just as the American electorate balks at social revolution, it has an extremely high tolerance for liberal economic measures. Here is where the Democrats roll up their majorities. Galbraith should have warned the party to exploit this advantage to the full, chiefly with the issue of tax reform.

...obvious reasons, the ability of oil companies with major interests in the Middle East to profit from that demand is in growing doubt. Oil producers with operations in Western Canada-a group that includes Home Oil, Banff Oil and Pacific Petroleums-seem better situated to exploit the prospects. The oil producers exploring off Indonesia, among them Natomas and Asamera, are more speculative. No one can yet tell what their rigs eventually may turn up, and that very mystery excites investors. Volatile Natomas, the biggest gainer of all, recently has been traded so heavily that Paul Hayes, oil analyst at William...
