...fall of 1978, Fran Tate had the notion to open a Mexican restaurant in Barrow, Alaska. She had canvassed the town-there are, if you count the transients, roughly 3,000 people there, 80% of them Eskimos-and Mexican food is what they said they favored, overwhelmingly. The more she thought about it, the more she liked the idea, and one day, in a fit of enterprise, she seized a board, a piece of two-by-four, it being the nearest thing at hand, and drew her plans on it-the kitchen, the dining room seating arrangement, all that. Fran...

...know that Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, the Depression-era bank robbers and murderers, were really a couple of lovable kids who just got their stars crossed. The movies told us so. Now audiences are to be instructed in the exemplary lives of Ethel and Julius Rosenberg. Sure they were convicted and executed for conspiring to pass atomic secrets to the Soviet Union. But we know that the 1950s were a time of anti-Red hysteria; the sitting judge on the Rosenberg case might have been Joe McCarthy. How do we know? Daniel tells us so. Alas for Sidney Lumet...

...Barrow's timing was a bit odd. Marines were indeed attacked last week, as were French and Italian members of the 5,200-man multinational force in Beirut, but not by Israelis. Most of the examples of Israeli harassment occurred when Ariel Sharon was still Defense Minister. His apparent motive: to ensure that Israeli rather than American or other foreign troops would guard the Lebanese side of the border once a troop-withdrawal agreement had been signed. Such confrontations have diminished since Sharon's replacement as Defense Minister by Moshe Arens. Many of the events Barrow referred...

Officials in Israel were stung by Barrow's accusations and the manner in which they were released. Prime Minister Menachem Begin's government issued a detailed rebuttal of Barrow's charges. It claimed that all the incidents took place within areas controlled by Israeli forces, not by the Marines, and attributed the strains partly to the fact that U.S. officers, unlike their French, Italian and British colleagues, are instructed not to confer with their Israeli colleagues. Privately, the Israelis blamed Weinberger, whom they regard as their nemesis in the Reagan Administration...

...General Barrow drafted his angry letter just as Israeli Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir and his Lebanese counterpart, Elie Salem, visited Washington for intensive negotiations with Secretary of State George Shultz. The purpose: to break the logjam in talks on withdrawing Israeli troops from Lebanon. The U.S. offered a variety of suggestions under which the security of southern Lebanon would be the responsibility of the Lebanese army and perhaps of special Lebanese units trained and equipped by the U.S. Major Saad Haddad's 1,200-man militia, which enjoys close links with the Israelis, could be integrated into this special...
