RELIEF FOR THOSE thrown out of work and those unable to compensate for economic misfortune is often a question of saving lives, a fact the President has ignored since taking office. While generals and planners were analyzing the performance of multi-billion-dollar weapons this summer and preparing budget requests, a bankrupt Ohio businessman named Antonio C. Garza took his wife. Kay, to make a new start in Texas. San Antonio police found the couple shot dead in the front seat of their car: Garza apparently killed his wife with a rifle before taking his own life. Near the bodies...

...entered the operation in 1925--and, what's more, in ways that would have appeared utterly alien to the cooperative's motley founders some 50 years earlier. It has grown from "a shelf or two in what was chiefly a fruit store" (as one historian puts it) to a multi-million dollar diversified retail business with six branches around the Boston area. Throughout the school year and summer, students, alumni and faculty of Harvard and MIT, as well as the general public, crowd the stores in search of not only obscure textbooks, but also suits, furniture, records, t-shirts, posters...

(The Gang, by the was recently solved its long-brewing bassist problem with the addition of the multi-talented Sara Lee hurray for coeducation in rock!) The biting "The History of the World" is a disguised condemnation of imperialism and the album's underdog success. "When I was in my mother's womb, social structure seemed at simple thing," sings King with comic earnestness...

...multi-talented Yazbeck probably should have figured out the choreography by himself as well. Credited to "the cast," the dance arrangements are sloppy and amateurish. Only about half of the ensemble demonstrates any real feel for the rhythm, and the rest make do with what they remember from high school hops. Worst of all, everyone keeps spilling into the audience to distribute flowers and fake LSD tabs.
