...sophisticated visuals, they are slipping out of the spotlight to make room for a chorus of scene stealers on both sides of the camera. Sullivan, a feline too mean for the Official I Hate Cats Book, is given the voice of gravel-garbling Aldo Ray. Someone finally found an apt role for ancient John Carradine: the basso voice of the Great Owl, fierce solon of the forest. Jeremy the Crow is a splendidly funny creation, all good will and ill wind, and Dom DeLuise speaks the part so perfectly that he deserves to become the first cartoon "voice...

Perhaps the frankest moment of the Pope's visit came during his sermon at Luján, when John Paul declared that he had come to Argentina "as the pilgrim of difficult moments." It was an apt phrase, well-earned during his. trip to Britain and doubly so in Argentina. There was no time-and no maneuvering room-for the diplomatic niceties that helped to give his British trip a less political flavor. While he could and did avoid a visit with Prime Minister Thatcher, who serves as head of government only, he could not make the same distinction...

Broyles will bring a sharply different editorial personality to Newsweek. In a memo announcing the appointment, Graham praised his "proven creativity in editorial direction ... and his innovation in editing and graphics." Graham's description may be apt.

In 1972 he became editor of the fledgling Texas Monthly and helped...

...drugs, virtually no alcohol and carries herbal tea bags to avoid caffeine drinks. When he is in Beverly Hills he does the food shopping, to the frustration of his maid Bertha Kanafil, and cooks often ("I've ruined a lot of good food," he admits). He is apt to spend four nights a week with his girlfriend Kathleen Carey, 33, a slight, pretty blond woman who works in the music business signing songwriters for Warner Bros. Music. "She has taught me that there's a life after movies," he says...

...drugs are anti-inflammatory agents like aspirin but remain in the bloodstream six times as long. Thus they are effective as once-a-day doses. They are also less apt to irritate the digestive tract. According to Lilly, Oraflex causes 50% fewer gastrointestinal side effects than aspirin. There remains a drawback. In clinical trials, Oraflex caused sun sensitivity leading to an itchy rash in about 20% of patients. This can be prevented by applying sunscreen lotions or even by getting a protective suntan before using the drug...
