With an initial circulation of 200,000, EM is a risky proposition for Johnson, particularly at a time when magazine advertising revenues are sluggish. A rival publication, MBM: Modern Black Man, has a year's head start, and several other magazines aimed at black men have folded in recent years. But no one in the industry is underestimating Johnson, whose 40-year-old Ebony has a circulation of 1.8 million. Says Don Jackson, president of Chicago's Central City Marketing: "Johnson will convince advertisers. I think Ebony Man's going to make...

Whatever the would-be Rockne told the players must have fallen short of "We're going inside 'em, we're going outside 'em, inside 'em, outside 'em," because the final score was 11-3. Thereafter the alumni kept to the grandstands, but Faust could hear them muttering. "It's a unique place," he says without detectable irony. "The support I've gotten has just been unbelievable. I love the place and I love the people." And, as long as he is definitely leaving, they are of a mind now to love him too. Immediately, a 25th Notre Dame football coach...

Hugh Hudson memorialized Britain's play-fair pluckiness in Chariots of Fire, then suggested in Greystoke, that its weary civilization stifled man's best primal instincts.

But this seems less cynical impartiality than a failure of craft. The film's central characters have virtually nothing to do with the winning or losing of the war. Working-class Boatsman Tom Dobb (Al Pacino...

...fact, the company plans to make about 20 films next year, more than any of the major studios. Several of them will be either gory shoot-'em-ups like the current Death Wish 3 or comic-book films like Captain America and Pinocchio--the Robot. Golan hopes that one of their films, Delta Force, which comes out next month with Chuck Norris and Lee Marvin, will be Cannon's first $100 million grosser. The script has terrorists taking over an American airliner and Norris and his Delta Force flying to the rescue, spraying bullets everywhere. The plot sounds very much...

...respect in the world if we continue to let our borders be overrun?" Ezell asks. Aliens, he says, should not be allowed to "enjoy our freedom if they break our laws to get in." Nor, he contends, should they simply be tossed back across the border: "If you catch 'em, you ought to clean 'em and fry 'em yourself." To do so, he has set up teams of investigators to prepare prosecutions against smugglers and those who enter the U.S. with phony documents...
