...White Fang & Black Tooth. Soupy (years ago he legally changed his name from Milton Hines) has been that way for years, dressed in a loose, V-necked black sweater and floppy, polka-dotted bow tie, taking pies in the face. Born in North Carolina, he started as a disk jockey in West Virginia, first hit it big in 1953 on Detroit's WXYZ-TV, where his TV antics cadged kids into eating lunch.

Goliath and the Vampires improbably combines a routine fang film with a beefcake B. Kobrak, the villain, is a vampire who drinks the blood of gorgeous girls from a golden goblet, appears and disappears in a pretty little puff of bright pink smoke, assembles an army of zombies with which to conquer the world.

Aubame had only one thing in common with Mba-the roots and culture of the once-cannibalistic Fang people, a tribe that has dominated Gabon's northern reaches since the early 1800s. Last year, when Mba tried to ease Aubame out of the Cabinet by offering him the presidency of the Supreme Court, the deal fell through. As chief of the opposition, Aubame insisted on also keeping his National Assembly seat. Last month, with the defeat of a bill aimed at eliminating one of Aubame's two jobs, Mba flew into a rage and tried to force...

...summer of 1959, another folk singer invited her to the first Folk Festival at Newport, R.I. Her clear-lighted voice poured over the 13,000 people collected there and chilled them with surprise. The record-company leg-and-fang men closed in. "Would you like to meet Mitch, Baby?" said a representative of Columbia Records, dropping the magic name of Mitch Miller, who is Columbia's top pop artists-and-repertory man when he isn't waving to his mother...
