...Despite loud bargaining noises, the two sides have come comfortably close to agreement on wages (the company's last offer was a 30? package increase over three years-to an average $3.40 an hour -which the union says is really 22?). But the basic issue was industry's demand for changes in the contract's twelve-year-old Section 2-B, which had deprived the steel companies of the right to change "local working conditions"-practices and customs, varying from one plant to another, governing such matters as crew sizes, the duties of particular jobs...
...apartment; they made her practice deafness by teaching her to ignore telephone bells, suddenly clashed pot covers, unexpectedly fired questions. Conditioned reflexes to sight and sound came under control.

Having lost his TV show in the furor over his divorce from Debbie Reynolds, and suffering chronically from poor record sales, Eddie Fisher seemed to be making...
...wife, whose part is a bit overplayed by Sarah Cunningham. Carnovsky's magnificent outbursts take on meaning from his more frequent displays of quiet resignation before wife's and fate's hand: "Did I say no?" he asks, seeking reconciliation. "The only thing was I didn't say yes loud enough...." This is a tremendously funny play. But the humor is warm, so close to life that it could not possibly be transmitted without the people. The humor exists in the tangled logic of the Jews' existence at this time of history, in late nineteenth century Russia. The existence itself...
