...DOCK OF THE BAY (Volt). The title song, Otis Redding's first million-selling single, was recorded a few weeks before his death in a plane crash last December. One of his catchiest and most reflective songs, it has none of the torrential outbursts and piston rhythms with which he electrified his audiences from Paris to Monterey during his brief reign as the crown prince of soul. But the album has other cuts of more typical pounding blues (I'm Coming Home and Don't Mess with Cupid), as well as some lighthearted badinage with Carla Thomas...
Flippie Brood. Since his wife's death last May in a head-on auto crash, Harlech has led a fairly quiet, solitary life except for a series of jet-age visits with Jackie. He accompanied her on a regal six-day tour of Cambodia in November, joined her in February at the Georgia plantation of former Ambassador to Great Britain John Hay Whitney, and escorted her, hand in hand, to Trader Vic's restaurant in Manhattan. Despite their obvious pleasure in one another's company, both have flatly denied rumors of a romance; Harlech says...

With blunt language operators and manufacturers have rarely heard before, the agency has indicated that G.M.'s Allison Division was careless in the manufacture of a propeller which tore loose on an airliner that crashed in Ohio last year (dead: 38) and has pointed to managerial sloppiness as the real root of a Frontier Airlines crash in Colorado in which the pilot and copilot, the plane's only occupants, died. At week's end, the safety board dispatched a special team to Texas...
...free to launch massive retaliatory fire-storm raids on the hapless civilians of Hamburg and Dresden. Since it was Hitler's Luftwaffe that began indiscriminate mass bombing in an attempt to break British morale, this charge is patently false. In the matter of General Sikorski's plane-crash death, no convincing proof is proffered that Churchill had a hand in it. It is a tenuous personal speculation indicative only of a common European fascination with conspiratorial-plot theories of history. One cut above a crank and several cuts below a thinker, Hochhuth seems very much like those dedicated...
