...lace the fields around Kallia, as sprinklers shoot jets of fresh water high in the air. Massey-Ferguson cultivators dig furrows, and Kallia's first crop of yellow corn is sprouting. One acre has been set aside for a hydroponic plot. Nutrients and chemicals from a 60,000-gal-lon fiber-glass reservoir wash long rows of coal-black tuff, a cinderlike debris of volcanic lava brought from the Golan Heights. In the tuff are melon and tomato seeds that may, thanks to the hydroponic forced feeding, yield up to ten times a normal crop. All told, the Israeli...
JIMMY SHINE is like a book in which the text has been thrown away and the footnotes published. Playwright Murray Schis-gal is fortunate to have Dustin Hoffman's ingratiating stage personality working for him as the luckless born loser, stumbling through episodes from his past, present and fantasy lives...
...headlines that they claimed were double entendres. I remember one particular headline "Two in Bed, Tangle Lasses." If you read it fast it sounded peculiar. Another one was "Big Balls Win Gal Prize."

By contrast, TWA's decision to doll up stewardesses on transcontinental domestic flights in "foreign accent" uniforms has proved something of a flop. Having hired the Wells...
Some call her the Israeli Brigitte Bardot for the daring decolletage she sometimes sports in films. But when Actress Daliah Lavi, 25, arrived at Scotland's Edinburgh International Festival, she was dressed for another part: that of a gal who had just come from mod, mod London. "Fashion is crazy," said Daliah, who was wearing a jaunty black Homburg, calf-high boots and a sleeveless coat over a white shirt and a mini skirt. "I had to join in like this because when I walk down the street in Lon don without fashion, nobody notices me." Nonsense...
