The former wife of California Governor Ronald Reagan was waiting for the curtain to go up on the musical Guys and Dolls, starring Daughter Maureen Reagan in the most exciting part she has had in her four-year acting career: Adelaide, the nightclub entertainer and perennial fiancée of Gambler Nathan Detroit. In four pairs of eyelashes and a fluffy blonde wig, Maureen drew guffaws and catcalls in her bumping and grinding A Bushel and a Peck number, but the theater critic of the San Diego Union was more restrained. "Maureen Reagan," he wrote, "compensates...

In an interview with the Brussels daily Le Soir, he said: "The countries of Western Europe are not movie stars who change fiancés every six months. If we get married, it is forever. So we must be serious about it." In the same interview, Pompidou voiced the fear that French would be supplanted by English as the EEC's major working language.
