| Walt Disney Studios Revives the Animated Short
 After a hiatus of nearly 50 years, Walt Disney Studios is getting back into the business of producing short cartoons, starting with a Goofy vehicle next year. Four new shorts are in development at Disney: "The Ballad of Nessie," a stylized account of the origin of the Loch Ness monster; "Golgo's Guest," about a meeting between a Russian frontier guard and an extraterrestrial; "Prep and Landing," in which two inept elves ready a house for Santa's visit; and "How to Install Your Home Theater," the return of Goofy's popular "How to" shorts of the '40s and '50s, in which a deadpan narrator explains how to play a sport or execute a task, while Goofy attempts to demonstrate -with disastrous results. The new Goofy short is slated to go into production early next year.
