What a life Singer Edith Piaf had! Born in the gutter, lived awhile in a cousin's whorehouse, discovered on a street corner. What a role to play! Brigitte Ariel, 19, a little-known French actress who has played mainly with provincial companies, was chosen for the film version of the bestselling biography by Simone Berteaut, the "Little Sparrow's" half sister. Brigitte, who was nine when Piaf died in 1963, has little in common with the megaphone-voiced singer except her height (4 ft. 11 in.). The songs will be dubbed in. About the part, Brigitte says...

Manhattan's Dr. Ariel Mengarini, a nonanalytic psychiatrist, asserts that the typical amateur chess player has had a formal education and has a job that does not come up to his intellectual capabilities. He needs the kind of mental workout that he gets in chess. Equally important, to Mengarini, is the struggle. "But the beauty of chess," he says, "is that the rules are clear-cut.

He is meant to be "morally neutral:" someone who has no wish...

...state manhunt was immediately launched. FBI agents, along with more than 30 officers of the Clark and Cowlitz county sheriff's departments, set up a command post and fanned out through a thickly timbered corridor 15 miles long and ten miles wide near the towns of Longview and Ariel in southwest Washington. The area is densely forested enough to present a serious hazard to the jumper if he did not make the clearing.

...watch herself. As her work matures, her inward eye rotates ever more outward into clairvoyance, where her experience becomes transparent to her and she is able to project it into its utmost mythological and symbolic limits. In Crossing the Water, "Who" is the lifeline to the clairvoyant "Daddy" in Ariel. Not amazingly, the poem addresses her other parent, her mother. In "Who" her voice comes into its own momentum; it is aggressive and unencumbered, and her concerns are elemental...
