...Connery (inexplicably cast as a NASA scientist). Karl Maiden stomps through the film in such a rage that you would think a hotel had refused to honor his traveler's checks. When the comet's "splinters" finally hit earth, wiping out a Swiss ski resort and a drive-in theater in Pisa, all Meteor can sum mon up is a few flashes of red light and some whoosh noises. Only at the end is there a convincing special effect: a tidal wave of sewage muck that engulfs the New York City subway system. When it comes to excrement...
...first killing occurred on Feb. 12 at a drive-in showing the movie in Palm Springs, Calif...
...week as 4,000 farmers from as far away as Colorado rolled into Washington aboard tractors and campers to press for higher farm price supports. If Bergland's bluntness was startling, so was the demonstrators' cause. Last winter when the small American Agriculture Movement organized its first drive-in at the capital, farm prices were depressed and many U.S. farmers were genuinely strapped. But now the A.A.M. militants, who signaled their arrival by dis rupting traflic and scuffling with police, are crying poor at a time when most farm ers are doing quite well...
...demonstrate their anger, settlers from Sinai, the West Bank and the Golan Heights snarled traffic in Jerusalem last week by staging a massive tractor drive-in. Later, a vociferous band of 2,000 protesters marched outside the Knesset waving banners that read WE BEG YOU NOT TO RETREAT FROM SINAI and BEGIN: ALWAYS IMPOSSIBLE TO RELY ON. Among the picketers were members of the 20 families that inhabit Ne'ot Sinai, one of 15 communities along the Mediterranean coast. The Ne'ot Sinai group was particularly angry with Begin: during a visit last year, he asked them...
...built without gutters or rain-spouts. But damp overcast mornings with mist are frequent, and sulphur fumes occasionally erupt from the nearby ocean bed. Taking advantage of the omnipresent sand, Walvis Baymen have built an 18-hole golf course with predictably spectacular bunkers. Perhaps the world's only drive-in movie atop a sand dune is a popular spot. Favorite sports include dune-buggy races and sand skiing at speeds of 40 m.p.h. down the precipitous 600-ft. dunes. The principal hazards for golfers, moviegoers, racers and skiers alike appear to be meandering flamingos and gulls...
