...Carolyn has rarely shown her works. "I hate fame," she says. "I hate money." But at age 69, she seems to be courting both. A retrospective of her paintings (priced between $6,500 and $12,000) is now on display at the Brandywine River Museum in Chadds Ford, Pa. The new visibility, however, does not mean that Carolyn plans to break her policy and see the exhibits of other artists. "They bore me," she says...

Most hunters coming to the Clinton station are hankering for a taste of the venison the day's efforts have brought them. Says a man as he lashes his deer across the rear deck of a Ford sedan and wipes some blood off a fender: "I like the ones I shoot myself even better." But some admit that eating is not a significant factor. "There are cheaper ways of putting food on the table," an elderly man explains as he and a friend unload a pair of deer. "Hunting is one of the few things you can do these...

Early last month a Johnston confederate, Leslie Dale, led the police to the body of an informer, Gary Wayne Crouch, in a shallow grave in dense woods near West Chester. A few weeks later, in the woods near Chadds Ford-a locale made famous by Artist Andrew Wyeth-state police unearthed the bodies of three gang associates: Wayne Sampson, 20, Duane Lincoln, 17, and James Johnston, 18. The three had disappeared in August, along with Sampson's brother James...

...performance in the film. I actually thought at the time that she had a promising career ahead of her as an actress. What a shame...), Richard Dreyfuss (a shallow, hammy, wise-ass punk of an actor, but he was less offensive back then, and is used marvelously here), Harrison Ford (amusing), MacKenzie Phillips (see Harrison Ford), Candy Clark and--for a few seconds, Suzanne Somers. Paul LeMat is very fine, too. A poignant ending--not the moronic "Here's What Happened To Each Guy" part--but the final shots of Dreyfuss looking out over the valley from his plane window...
