...intemperate and anti-Semitic hatemonger. But otherwise those at the Clifford coffee klatch put on their best company behavior; they even dutifully laughed when Jackson snidely dismissed offers of help from aides to fallen presidential rivals with the line "Sometimes you can make energy from trash." As one breakfast clubber said in summing up the faction's reaction to Jackson, "Liberals like to be abused like this once in a while. It's an easy way of showing how tolerant...
This time Rocky, who whipped Creed to take the title in II, announces his retirement, feeling he can no longer give the sport his best shot. From the crowd on the museum steps jumps the Mohawk-coiffed, feather-bedecked Clubber Lang (played by Newcomer Mr. T, a.k.a. Lawrence Tero). The top contender harangues the champ with an intensity from somewhere beyond Muhammad Ali, demanding a title shot. Mickey, who has coached Rocky's career from the beginning, tells the fighter the awful truth: his title defenses have been against opponents he could easily whip. Lang, he suggests, would...
...plot of Rockey III serves as the only new addition. The movie begins with Rocky as a complacent and worshipped world champion; he lives in a mansion, drives a Model T around his grounds, and appears as a spokesman for American Express.

Rocky agrees to fight Lang, taking on his former rival Apollo Creed as coach...

And if you haven't heard one of these stories, he will gladly fill you in on the details. "The best person on Bernie Krieger is Bernie Krieger," says Archie C. Epps, III, dean of students...
...this corner, with the Mohican-style hairdo and the beard, is the challenger, Clubber Lang, played by Lawrence ("Mr. T.") Tero. In the other corner, with the ruddy cheeks and the winning smile, is the champ. Rocky Balboa, played by Sylvester Stallone. The two slug it out in Stallone's new film, Rocky III, due in June 1982. During the fight scenes the pair sparred actively, pulling their punches when they could, but occasionally connecting hard. Mr. T. packs quite a wallop-he is a former bodyguard for such pugilists as Muhammad Ali and Leon Spinks. Still, Stallone...
