Each evening they stroll through the streets of Rome, she holding fondly on to his arm. Then Author Simone de Beauvoir, 70, and Philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre, 73, sit and sip aperitifs at an outdoor cafe and dine in their favorite restaurants in the Piazza Navona. The Parisian couple's mutual devotion during 49 years of intimacy is nearly matched by their attachment to Rome-where they have spent part of every summer for the past 25 years. "We have no work plans at all right now," says Beauvoir. "We're just enjoying our vacation." As a friend...
...PRESIDENT should have nothing to worry about, since arm-twisting by Byrd and Sen. Henry M. Jackson (D-Wash.), floor leader of the bill, have beaten back efforts to kill it by a filibuster.

...back in his home town of Parma, scouting locations for his new movie, La Luna, starring Jill Clayburgh. Seeing perhaps with the eyes of his imagination, the director stumbled over a No Parking sign and broke both his elbows. Not one to let so minor an inconvenience as arm-length casts deter him, Bertolucci was back on the set in two weeks, using a long wooden holder for his view finder. "When I started to direct this film," he said, "I already had a heavy responsibility as director and co-author of the screenplay, and had a part...
