Republicans could have a lot of fun with last Saturday's Democratic fund-raiser at Steven Spielberg's home, where Hollywood couples paid $50,000 each to dine with Bill and Hillary Clinton, listen to Robin Williams's shtick and chow down on populist vittles like fried chicken. What more perverse weekend to schedule such an event than the one in which the President ended his 100-day silence to re-emerge as the champion of the middle class? Awkward as this symbolism was, even more embarrassing is how little the Democrats have to show for their ostentatious synergy with the most powerful and imaginative minds in the pop-culture industry. Bill Clinton may draw campaign checks from the DreamWorks moguls, but it is the G.O.P. that cannily milks the machinery of the mass media to pound out its message.

United Airlines said yesterday that it would replace 94 of its oldest aircraft with new planes during the next five years. Analysts said the Boeing Company was likely to be the big beneficiary of the move. Gerald Greenwald, chairman and chief executive of United's parent, the UAL Corporation, told analysts in New York yesterday that the McDonnell Douglas DC-10 was an example of the type of plane that might be replaced. United has not identified which planes will be replaced, but aircraft like the DC-10 could be replaced on some routes with the smaller Boeing 757. The Boeing jet uses less fuel and requires only a two-man crew, instead of the three-man crew needed to operate the DC-10. Shares of UAL rose $3.375, to $112.375, on the New York Stock Exchange, while shares of Boeing gained $2, to $55.875.

The Interstate Bakeries Corporation said yesterday that it would pay $461 million in cash and stock to acquire the Continental Baking Company, $110 million less than originally announced.

Ralston Purina, the producer of dry pet food based in St. Louis, said the smaller cash portion reflected weaker operating results at Continental Baking, the country's largest bakery.
