Demarest, one of TIME'S most versatile writers and a man who has handled assignments from De Gaulle to gourmet cooking, was as impressed as his companion by the Chinese he saw, calling the country "Communism with a smile." Mike remembers Mydans working day after day as if he wanted to capture that expression on a a billion faces. "Carl chased around China like a mountain goat," says Demarest. "He was patient, inexhaustible and, above all, unflappable...
...strode in. "How about a beer for me? I've got money." Ten minutes later, Brown was gone. Winging back to Los Angeles (though the Governor remarked that he might prefer to head for the Santa Monica airport?presumably because it is closer to Malibu, home of his close companion, Singer Linda Ronstadt), Brown explained his attempt to blend liberal and conservative positions. "It's what I call mixing frugality with compassion. The people want fiscal responsibility and openness and experimental government. Anti-red lining, antismog regulations and farm labor laws?all these are compatible with a fairly hard fiscal...
...bumper sticker proclaiming: DEFECTORS HAVE MORE FUN. In Washington, the CIA saw less to be amused about. Director Stansfield Turner explained that while Shevchenko "is receiving compensation from the CIA commensurate with his services and value to the U.S.," he is getting nothing for a "female companion."

...flight to Japan. His Holiness was en route to a world Buddhist conference in Tokyo from India, where he has lived since fleeing Tibet and the Communists in 1959. Seated in the "frequent traveler" section (though it is only the fourth time he has left India), he told his companion that he had received a Japanese visa on one condition: stick to religious activities. "What is there to worry about?" wondered the Dalai Lama, 43. "I'm only a simple Buddhist monk. A flower in need of water." He then filled out his landing card-leaving the "occupation" spot...
...only a spark to explode. It soon gets one, as Mia Farrow shows up again and boards the cruise. One night in the saloon she shoots her ex-lover in the leg, dropping the gun on the floor in panic. The doctor leads Fiance away, while the socialite's companion (a nurse) looks after Mia. When the Marxist goes for the gun, it's missing. Next morning, Ridgeway is found shot, with a J drawn in blood on the wall next to her. But it can't be Jackie, who was in sight of the nurse all night. Elimination time...
