Ah ha!  Does this apply to all the variables?  That is, are there some
that need to be defined after loading org.el?  

I've always been a bit confused as to how and when variables can be
manipulated...  I guess it comes down to all these variables being
global in scope.

Anyway, setting the variables before loading org does indeed do what I
want.  My lecture slides now look as they should!  Thanks again and
sorry for the noise!
