...reduce tedium and tension. Ford likes movies at night but sometimes flakes out. He fell asleep during a screening of The Sugarland Express but stayed the distance for Chinatown. There is an effort to introduce soothing potions of humor in the daily rituals. When Hollywood's gorgeous Candice Bergen was in the Oval Office taking pictures, a serious avocation of hers, alongside David Hume Kennerly, Ford's cameraman, the President went dutifully through his routine as the shutters clicked. After the two had gone, Kennerly was summoned back to Ford's desk. There stood a somber Ford...
...Ladies' Home Journal is not so dumb. It commissioned Renaissance Woman Candice Bergen, 28, to get inside the White House and shoot some informal pictures of the First Family. Candy had already caught the eye of official White House Photographer David Hume Kennerly, who obligingly set up exclusive photo sessions for her. Candy seemed exclusive too. So it was that an envious Washington photo corps saw Candy and David not only stepping out together at the state dinner for visiting Pakistani Prime Minister Zulfikar All Bhutto but even indulging in a little slap-and-tickle as well...
Five Break-ins. The murder attracted widespread publicity, and soon the Bergen County police received calls from Pennsylvania and Maryland authorities: a man and boy with a virtually identical modus operandi were wanted in those states. In November, in the Philadelphia suburb of Lindenwold, N.J., a man and boy forced their way into a home and tied a housewife to a bed.

There, a man and boy bound and assaulted...

As the various law-enforcement agencies compared notes, the presumption grew. Explained New Jersey's Bergen County prosecutor, Joseph Woodcock: "Most of the victims described the man's age between 40 and 45. They said the young boy was eleven or twelve. Basically, the method of operation was the same. The man seemed to cut electrical cords indiscriminately. He used some pieces to tie the victims...
...Bond, Actor Sean Cannery came to epitomize the icy-cool professional. Now retired from Bondian intrigue, Connery has found his latest role as Raisuli, "the last of the Barbary pirates," a hotter venture. Filmed in the arid deserts of Almeria, Spain, The Wind and the Lion co-stars Candice Bergen as Connery's American kidnap victim, and Brian Keith as President Theodore Roosevelt, whom Connery tries to blackmail. Based loosely on an actual historical incident, the movie required Connery to be costumed in Arab headgear so hot that it kept the actor within wandering distance of his air-conditioned...
