WHISPERING DIRTY WORDS in a girl's ear is one of the fool-proof secrets for driving a chick crazy offered by that cultural curiousity, How To Pick Up Girls. And plenty of good advice, too--if we judge by the audience of the London Madhouse Stunt Show last Sunday night--an audience that was reduced to a malleable jelly of shrieking girls by what seemed to be one endless train of obscenities, phallic jokes and frontal nudity...

...race day, three of the original 1,200 horses were recognized favorites: Chick Called Sue, owned by Texas Trial Lawyer Aubrey Stokes; Rocket's Magic, belonging to Louisiana Fish Merchant Bill Thomas; and Bugs Alive, a filly bred by Ralph Shebester, owner of an Oklahoma oil rig repair company. In the starting gate, the three favorites were stationed side by side. Bugs Alive broke clean−a critically important advantage in so short a dash; Chick Called Sue stumbled badly; and Rocket's Magic quickly fell behind. Bugs Alive led all the way. "For the last 100 yards...

...before the meeting of this preposterous pair that Pride of the Bimbos excels. Sayles has a deadly accurate ear for Southern cracker dialect ("Chick at awl?" asks a South Carolina gas-station attendant); the jabbering at a sand-lot baseball game ("Chuckerinthereissgahcantit"); and the good-ole-boy humor ("if that woman fell down a well, you could pump ugly for a week"). Best of all, the gruff friendship between Burns and the young son of a teammate is successfully played for both laughs and pathos; as it does in all initiation tales, the moment comes when the boy must measure...

...Viners are a refreshingly naive couple in Beverly Hills. Deborah likes stuffed animals, and Michael, who is also a record producer, insists that no mention of hard drugs be made in any of the songs he produces. Deborah, too, has firm ideas. In Enough, she played January, the chick who matures with the help of alcohol and drugs, but she modified the role to a more normal adolescence. She also objects to nudity in films: "It violates my privacy." That stand prompted Co-Star Kirk Douglas to ostracize her on the set. He accused her of being frigid. "It seems...
