SPIDER'S WEB, a chiller by Agatha Christie, with Joan Fontaine, will be luring audiences to the Cape Playhouse, Dennis, Mass., from Aug. 7 through Aug. 12. From there, it goes to the Pocono Playhouse, Mountainhome, Pa., Aug. 14 through Aug. 19, and the Candlewood Theater, New Fairfield, Conn...
...beginning, all cars were roofless carriages that exposed their hardy riders to billowing dust, scorching sunshine and drenching rain. Soon pioneers of the automobile spread a canvas canopy over their heads, and the convertible was born.

Every weekend, all summer long, the 18-seat Caroline makes the Washington-Hyannis Port run with a full load of assorted Kennedys, Shrivers, their staff members and house guests. The crunch comes when it is time for the flight back to Washington. The size of the original entourage is often swelled by guests who made it up to the Kennedy compound on their own, and there is often...
