...Watergate-related story blazoned across the front page. But now the drumbeat of daily Watergate headlines has died away to a faint, uninsistent thump. Suddenly, there is no "news." Or, to put the matter another way, all the news that fits is in print. Local gripes now receive fullblown front-page treatment. Crime makes a comeback. Sports stories normally relegated to back pages jump startlingly forward. The merely eyecatching, the determinedly trivial and the yawning of a new era are now featured boldly. Says the Boston Globe's assistant managing editor, Tim Leland: "Stories that would have struggled...

Observers believe that the veiled criticism of Wu Teh is especially significant because the first major casualty of the Cultural Revolution of 1966-69 was Peng Chen, who was then the mayor of Peking.

HEALTHY APPRECIATIONS no longer suffles. A weekend with the Kinks finds me emerging fullblown into fandom. Live Kinks have been called a "juiced Jersey bar band." That they are, But they're also a vehicle for Ray Davies' mad genius. I admire Davies (belatedly I'll admit) for his flagrant Englishnees and an equally flagrant aura of working class. (Davies is from London's Muswell Hill district). I admire his adamant refusal to betray those roots. He and his bend of vagrants rock on. God Save the Kinks...

...there was unprecedented demand-and unaccustomed prosperity-for U.S. scientists, engineers and technicians. No longer. As a result of sharp cutbacks in defense spending, reduced allocations for space programs, federal tightfistedness when it comes to basic research, and a faltering national economy, the scientific community is suffering a fullblown recession...
