Though Taj says that "playing music is one of the strongest social statements that you can make in this day and age," he openly discusses his understanding of racial tension going on in South Boston. "You have a bunch of people in this town who really got short-changed on their education, quiet as it's kept. That's exactly why they don't get along today. They've put a lot of years in the factories around here, in the sweatshops--above and under the ground--and they're not going to give up their little corner to anybody...
...general craziness of the times, when a boy from the north could become a crown prince on the strength of one good tune or two. Stardust picks up in 1964, and MacLaine and his group, the Stray Cats, seem modeled on the Beatles. They jump from being a bunch of good-time lads playing dungeons in Liverpool to the very top of the pops in a series of brisk scenes that capture both the suddenness and improbability of such success. Once he has it made, MacLaine becomes in quick succession a poet, a guru, a her mit and finally...
Ironically, Notre Dame's power often works against Boulac. "The biggest thing we have to overcome," he says, "is that people think we've got a bunch of superathletes stacked up on the sidelines.

Another shows a workable method of skinning tomatoes, which he adds to a "simple white sauce for a fish filet, making an economical and nutritious dish." For kitchen weepers, he presents a way of cutting onions without expending a tear. Some forthcoming Graham goodies include a curdle cure for hollandaise and a technique for cutting hamburger shrinkage by folding an ice cube frozen with soy sauce into the middle of a patty. Other Kerr culinary...
...Wall. Someone named Larry just walked in here with reams of paper and enthusiasm about a new movie place in Cambridge, Off the Wall, where they show free films, children's pictures, video, and a lot of experimental stuff. He says a bunch of friends--filmmakers and artists--began to show movies up in their apartment and it expanded into the present coffeehouse setup they have now, which does "what the Orson Welles intended to do, and would be doing if they could afford it." Off the Wall appears to have some cash, and can get cheaper rates since they...
