Rumor has it that a major challenge facing the new Administration will be a Con– gressional drive to establish a Federal Bureau of Resolutions. The proposed FBR would be chartered "to monitor and regulate the broad socio-economic impact of annual and other periodic, recurring and non-recurring, resolutions. " Says Senator Watts Laissez-Faire (D. La), the major proponent of the bill, "What we see is every citizen filing a Resol– ution Impact Report with the FBR before implementing his New Year's Resolution.

THE MIRROR CRACK'D. Fo r anyon e who has been a fan of Agatha Christie mystery novels, Miss M arple, or th e inimitabl e Margaret Ruth erford , goi ng to thi s film is like o rd ering a scotch and soda and receiving a glass of lukewarm Gatorad e instead. Probably Christi e's sto ri es should only be tackled by th e Briti sh, th ose great ecce ntrics (amon g whom was a Lord Somebodyoroth er who rod e an alligator, both stark naked, through th e streets of London) , be caus e thi s plainly Am eri can effort is a dismal failure. Angela Lansbury was handed a soggy script whi ch neither

matches her tal ents nor afford s her th e kind of wond erful crustiness Margaret Ruth erfo rd co nveyed; Elizabeth Taylor and Kim Nova k as two aging movi e queens makin g comebacks turn in per– formances whi ch explain the titl e of th e film ; and th e plotline has all th e integrity of a sli ce of swis s chees e. It isn't even bad enough to be fun ; if you're expecting High Camp, resign yourse lf to a small tent pitched on the banks o f th e Low er Hudson. Save your money. Or buy the book.
