...York, and My Own Space is a pensive, meditative ode to the beauty of possessing one's territorial declarative. Halston's costumes blaze like sun-kindled autumn leaves, and the dance team of three women and four men are, collectively, a card hand of sev en aces.

FRANCE. French secondary education tends to be much more grueling than the U.S. version. Primary school ends at age eleven or twelve, when students enter a college d'en-seignement secondaire-roughly equivalent to a junior high school.

Analysts believe that Teng Hsiao-p'ing is gunning for the commander, who is said to have opposed Teng's return to power. If so, there is little doubt of the outcome. In reports of a reception held last week for the 1,000 workers who built Mao Tse-tung's mausoleum, Teng was listed as No. 3 man in the Chinese hierarchy, while Ch'en had slid from fifth to 14th place...

This handsome hulk of a capitalist-benefactor was born in a boxcar, son of an Italian immigrant mother and a French-Italian father en route to a railroad job in California. Mama and Papa Lavette perish in the San Francisco earthquake of 1906. Daniel is left with his father's small boat and a shockproof will to rise in the world. He is a tough, practical, democratic cuss who cares little for racial, religious or class barriers. To keep track of his profitable fishing venture, he hires a Chinese bookkeeper and later takes a Jewish business partner. An unselfconscious...
