Kings of Kink. WAVAW has asked record-buyers to boycott the three companies. But so far the tactic has had little impact. In fact, record shops may be on the way toward luring browsers away from dirty-book shops. Some current albums: Wild Angel by Nelson Slater (girl wearing a chain gag); Bloodstone's Do You Wanna Do a Thing? (gang-rape scene); Pure Food and Drug Act's Choice Cuts (woman's bare buttocks stamped with the album title). A group called the Ohio Players has illustrated a series of albums with sadistic photos. Among them...
Died. Carl Zuckmayer, 80, German playwright and satirist who wrote the screenplay for The Blue Angel, the 1929 film that made Marlene Dietrich a star; in Visp, Switzerland. Son of a Rhenish cork manufacturer, Zuckmayer won a pocketful of medals in World War I, then turned to writing.

A delicate morality play that is also a send-up of melodramatic conventions, it is very likely the best of the best-and surely the wittiest...
...against those who like her just the way she is ("She really is an angel," says Sebastian Engleberg, her voice teacher for ten years), there are others who feel that Flicka's full potential has yet to be tapped. One of those is veteran Stage Director Frank Corsaro, who worked with her at the Houston première of The Seagull. Corsaro senses a certain turbulence, even aggressiveness inside Flicka. "I would love to see her play a real bitch," he says. The most immediate possibility is the neurotic, highly sexed Fennimore in Delius' Fennimore and Gerda, which...
