That comely coed dutifully jotting lecture notes in biology class? That long-haired beatnik with the droopy mustache sidling into a bull session at an off-campus bar? Beware. They may not be students at all but undercover agents -out to make a pinch. That, at least, was what students at Cornell and Fairleigh Dickinson universities discovered last week. To their considerable surprise, local police in both communities had planted spies on campus to get leads on the sale of illegal drugs...
...engaged detachment." Monro could talk to people for hours without tiring or abandoning the conversation in frustration. "The first time I went in to see him," recalls one student, "I expected to stay for about ten minutes. Instead, I ended up staying for about 50 and slinging the bull on just about everything."

...frantic hero (Michael Crawford) is the kind of artist who fashions metallic sculptures that look as if they were conceived during a tin famine. Engaged to a very U deb (Lynn Redgrave), he is about to meet her very pukka sahib army colonel father (Peter Bull).

It may be a wise move, since his fame came not so much from his skill with the cape but from the insane chances...
...Bears & Bulls. Home base for Mrs. Post's constant flurry of house parties and charity benefits is Washington's Hillwood, a 22-room Georgian mansion set on 24 acres overlooking Rock Creek Park. Invitations to Hillwood are only slightly less sought after than those to the White House. The house, already bequeathed to the Smithsonian, is furnished with Gobelin tapestries and Louis XVI furniture (including chairs made for Marie Antoinette). It is surrounded by a garden with plants from Buckingham Palace and Mount Vernon. In the French Regency dining room, guests-including Cabinet Ministers and royalty-eat from...
