...glamorous growth industry. But at last week's extravaganza in the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, the glamour was tempered by a touch of gloom. Attendance was disappointing, most of the new products were unexciting, and exhibitors were hard pressed to drum up enthusiasm. Even the shapely brunet in a bright-red leotard who was posted in front of the NEC Corp. booth did not attract a crowd. Summed up Morton Goldman, vice president of Elek-Tek, a Chicago-area retailer: "We're very disappointed. This business is in trouble right...
...reverberating across the land was for rock's working-class hero, born to run and now saddled for the marriage stakes. Bruce Springsteen, 35, is settling down with his sweetheart of six months, Julianne Phillips, 25, a model turned actress from Lake Oswego, Ore. He and the blue-eyed brunet beauty will wed this week in a nuptial Mass at her hometown church (both are Roman Catholics, neither has been married before).

Movie audiences, however, will only see Lange lip-syncing. The voice belonged to the real Cline...
...Sara, a very adult sitcom about a single lawyer (Geena Davis) trying to make it on her own in San Francisco. The show is being touted as 1985's answer to the Mary Tyler Moore Show, a boast that can most charitably be described as optimistic. Davis, a tall brunet with an annoying habit of talking into her chest, has little of Mary's tough-but- vulnerable charm, and the gag lines would have embarrassed the crowd at WJM- TV. (A friend, chiding Sara for taking low-paying cases, wonders if she has something against making money: "Did something happen...
