That does not mean they enjoy busing. "I'm really not for it," says Woods. "I'd much rather have the boys closer to home." Last year Ken walked to Martin Luther King School, only two blocks from his trim red brick home in the city's predominantly black West End. Byron attended Shawnee Junior High School, ten blocks away. Says the boys' mother, Mary, a medical lab technician at Jewish Hospital: "If there was a better way of bringing about racial equality in the schools, we'd go for it, but there doesn...
...unauthorized showing in Moscow of "unofficial" art, Zelenin was arrested. Much luckier is Martina Navratilova, Czechoslovakia's 18-year-old tennis star; as the U.S. Open Championships at Forest Hills ended last week, she defected to the U.S., explaining that in her Communist-run homeland, she did not enjoy the freedom to play tennis "whenever I want and wherever I want...

Once again Christie has twisted the classic form in which she writes, and has come up with something new. Curtain is a shocker. It will cause intense, benign controversy and become an enormous bestseller. It is to be hoped that Queen Elizabeth has more ribbons in her closet to decorate this enduring and lonely symbol of British vitality...
