Three years later came some startling new evidence: in the garden and wall of Christie's seedy London flat, police found the bodies of seven women. Among them was the corpse of Evans' wife. At his trial, Christie confessed to Mrs. Evans' murder...
...Steve Spurrier, 21, and Richard Trapp, 20, have a simple system of signals: whenever Flanker Trapp sees that he is not being "double-teamed"-meaning covered by two defensive backs-he nods to Quarterback Spurrier, who immediately throws to him. A 9.8-sec. sprinter who is most dangerous on flat passes, Trapp has caught 31 passes for 489 yds. and six touchdowns, is one of the main reasons Florida is ranked No. 8 in the nation.

"You just missed being beautiful," mocks her roommate's modcap beau (Alan Bates). When the violinist gets pregnant, the mod marries her, and Georgy sticks around to cook, clean, clown, care for the baby, and light the slow-burning fires of infidelity. The emergence of Georgy is essentially a souped-up Cinderella tale, sometimes preposterous, always sentimental, but occasionally human and hilarious too. Plumpish birds who nest alone on Saturday nights will cherish its pathos, and others will respect...
