FORTY CARATS proves that love is a game for all seasons, with Julie Harris as a middle-aged divorcee wooed and won by a lad of 22 while her teen-age daughter is carried off by a widower...

Within minutes, a deadly, all-enveloping mist hovered over the vicinity. Sleeping in their house near the tracks, Ron Hatchett, 21, and his small daughter died almost instantly.
