DIED. Robert Fabian, 77, legendary British detective who until 1949 headed Scotland Yard's Flying Squad; in Epsom, Surrey, England. Fabian said that to beat a crook one had to follow the "reasonings of his warped mind," but his findings were as often the result of tenacious 18-hour-a-day investigations.

It moved, man, to the solid beat of a score that was capable, on occasion, of affectionately parodying the emerging rock sound of that era. Grease was a marvelous entertainment, mostly because it was unpretentiously true to the times it briskly summoned...
