...long-winded, inconclusive answer to a provocative question he offers a resolute "Yup" or "Nope." In fashion-conscious Manhattan, he would make anybody's list of worst-dressed candidates of the year. Often he wears a jacket that is either worn or torn and rarely matches his denim trousers, a threadbare tie that he bought for $1 in 1967 and Hush Puppies. His campaign style is in keeping with his dress. He is not surrounded by pollsters and media consultants. From all conventional appearances, Clark is scarcely running for office...
...comedy-drama Room 222. The show's producer was Allan Burns, a veteran writer who had won his first Emmy. They became the creative cornerstones of MTM Enterprises and the most unlikely and profitable collaboration since Kaufman and Hart.Bearded and rumpled, Brooks, 35, gives the impression of a denim bedspread on its way to the Laundromat.

Flym's class on Constitutional Issues studies the decisions of the three-year old Burger Court, and the analysis...
During flights, passengers wander up and down the aisles talking, drinking and listening to piped-in rock music; Pong machines, backgammon and chess boards, and a giant denim pillow are strewn about the plane, which has no class sections. Stewardesses and stewards, who walk and talk like real people, wear ultra-violet Flash Gordon-type outfits and berets with the black and white Freelandia insignia of an open hand. What's more, they remain in their original clothes throughout the flight, thus eliminating those strange airborne fashion shows...
