Just before the auto heir died last December, he was divorcing his wife, but luckily for her he didn't make it in time, and Gregg Sherwood Dodge, fortyish, became his widow instead. She thought that meant she was in line for his $2,500,000 estate. Only he had too many debtors. So Gregg decided to sue not only his estate but also his mother (who's worth $65,000,000) for trying to break...
Nobody is more noisily dissatisfied these days than that symbol of stability-the fortyish housewife with teenage children and a reasonably successful husband.

Bo says they are just friends, and adds that he is ready to play ball in Hawaii after all-unless he and Ricky decide to buy a nightclub together...
...francs, just enough to keep himself in beer. Now, at London's prestigious O'Hana Gallery, his own childlike oil-on-canvas pictures are bringing from $700 to $1,400 apiece, and he has learned to sign them Emile Gauguin. He has reformed too, says fortyish mentor, Madame Josette Giraud, a French writer who bailed him out of jail several times and put a paintbrush in his hand. When word gets back to the islands, the artist can be proud, for even the austere London Times called his 61 canvases "a life document of touching simplicity...
