While 25 policemen stood guard inside Courtroom 3-C of the Guilford County Courthouse in Greensboro, N.C., and police sharpshooters patrolled the surrounding rooftops outside, Jury Foreman Octavio Mandulay slowly announced the verdicts. There were five counts of murder and one count of rioting against each of the six defendants. As the litany of "not guilty" grew, a relative of one of the accused choked back a sob. By the time the 36th and final "not guilty" was called out, the defendants themselves were weeping...
...will meet a new lady, a professional lady - and not the oldest profession either." J.R.'s niece Lucy (Charlene Tilton) will marry an idealistic pre-med student (Leigh McCloskey) in a two-hour episode in January. Patriarch Jock (Jim Davis) will reveal that Ranch Foreman Ray Krebs (Steve Kanaly) is his illegitimate son. As for Kristin, she is on her way to the Dallas spinoff Knots Landing. And she may yet return to the Ewing spread with new and grander plans. Bobby is still infuriatingly faithful to his wife; and Sue Ellen might take one drink too many...
...migration of non-Texan writers to Austin is also bringing the awareness of national audiences to local activity as they follow the presses that follow the poets to their new home base. Poets Paul Foreman and Foster Robertson moved from San Francisco, where they published the ten-year-old poetry journal Hyperion, and opened Thorp Springs Press, which has published about ten titles so far. The opening of their off-beat bookstore at 803 Red River Street was a major literary celebration that offered a weekend of readings by scheduled and non-scheduled writers, a home for in-print...

Using a libretto by Richard Foreman, his longtime collaborator, the composer has written a fantasy, or more precisely a phantasmagoria, about psychoanalysis and creativity. As the piece begins, Miss Adare, played by Soprano Carol Gutknecht, is seeing her psychiatrist Dr. Hoffman (Bass-Baritone Richard Cross). Her problem: she cannot make up her mind whether she wants to be an opera star or a movie star, and while she dallies, she cannot even make enough money to pay for her sessions. When Hoffman refuses to treat her again...
...Madame Adare sounds like a jumble, it is. In previous works, Silverman, 42, and Foreman, 43, deliberately avoided linear plot lines in favor of surreal musical and visual images, with results that were sometimes beguiling. Here there are too many images and, perversely, too much plot. Silverman's music is as always, eclectic and occasionally witty. When Adare decides to become an opera singer, for instance, the orchestra plays strains from Boris Godunov. Unfortunately, Silverman seems to have no point of view, and his music is an uninspired mélange...
