Soon after police in Winston-Salem, N.C., were notified last December that a 1973 Fiat had been stolen, they found the car stuck in the mud off a country road. Missing were the battery, a tape player and a black footlocker that had been in the trunk. The case looked routine until a few days later when children walking on a roadside a few miles away found the footlocker with its lock broken and its contents-papers and notebooks-scattered through the underbrush. Last week the Justice Department disclosed that the documents included top secret copies of communications between Washington...
According to police, Smith's knowledge of such behavior may have been more than academic. Last month he was caught allegedly breaking into a parked van and brandishing a gun to boot. When cops searched his car, they found a mask, guns and burglar's tools. The next day a longtime friend of Smith's, Harold Jones Jr., a librarian for a Philadelphia high school, was arrested leaving Smith's house with several pounds of marijuana. Subsequently, another county charged Smith with stealing $53,000 from a Sears, Roebuck store last year...

The President himself, a stock car racing buff and Nelson's No. 1 fan, had planned the party for members of the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, some of whom rolled up to the "diplomatic entrance" in their Day-Glo colored "stockers." Alas, Jimmy couldn't get away from his Israeli...
...real me's," says Sissy Spacek, 28, who struts about in diamonds and furs for her first role as a mature woman in Heart Beat. The movie tells the story of the late Beat author Jack Kerouac and of Neal Cassady, a onetime car thief and the model for Dean Moriarty in Kerouac's 1957 novel On the Road. Spacek plays Carolyn, a well-bred commercial artist who is married to Neal. To research the role, Spacek read a 1,400-page manuscript written by Carolyn and concluded that she was a well-educated, glamorous, "classy lady." Portraying...
