He's now read everything he's interested in.^^Narrator: Maybe there are other things worth reading.^^Bill says he really doesn't have time to read anything more.^^Narrator: It doesn't take long, Bill. That's why they have HEADLINES.^^Narrator explains the plusses of scanning, skimming -- how to read the headline plus the lead.^^Narrator: Try it for a week!^^Bill, instead of grabbing an Uzi and killing the narrator, follows his advice, and to the tune of the Nutcracker Suite, he and everyone else in his life starts reading the paper thoroughly, and having their lives improved.^^Shot: Older woman (Bill's mom) clipping recipes out of the newspaper and pasting them into book.^^Keyword: 1950s Educational Film.^
