Back to the Burglar. In the first game of the Series last week, all the heroes belonged to St. Louis. On to pitch came Veteran Righthander Bob Gibson, 31, twice victor over the New York Yan kees in the 1964 World Series, twice a 20-game winner, and well on his way to another big season before a line drive broke his left leg last July.

GAMBIT. Michael Caine and Shirley Mac-Laine are paired as a burglar and his accomplice in this nonchalant comedy about "the perfect crime." Set in Hong Kong and the Middle East, the plot is a series of twists and turns that culminates in five possible endings, all incredible but still...
