...group of refugees from a fancy Dungeons & Dragons tournament? Nope, just James Mason, Olivia Hussey, Anthony Andrews and Lysette Anthony in period garb for the CBS-TV movie Ivanhoe, due to air in February. The Sir Walter Scott novel of religious prejudice inspired the 1952 MGM classic with Robert Taylor and Elizabeth Taylor. Olivia must now contend with the memory of Liz's smoldering Rebecca, but she doesn't want to hear about Ol' Lavender Eyes. Huffs Hussey: "I don't follow in anyone's footsteps...

...squad. LAMARR FLATT--who saw lots of action his freshman year in the 1979-80 season, but who spent last year away from the hardcourt--is back. Senior DAVE KOHN opted not to try out this season, but he was up on the fourth floor anyway, in the unfamiliar garb of a member of the coaching staff.

Slight, softspoken, reclusively inclined, Lucas wears that mantle as lightly as he wears the garb of his Star Wars success. He drives a Toyota, wears plaid sports shirts and high-top basketball sneakers, works in a home-office complex in Marin County, across the bridge from San Francisco. He loathes Los Angeles ("Hollywood doesn't care about film; they live to make deals") and does not like to direct. He runs his Lucasfilm operation tightly but benignly. His top executives are often film-school graduates and always knowledgeable, low-key, untemperamental. They have to be smart since...

...chasing cars -what do they do if they catch one? Wrestle him to the ground? Drag him off to the hoosegow?" Shales ridiculed Dan Rather's histrionic foray into Afghanistan last year for 60 Minutes, dubbing him "Gunga Dan," and noting that Rather's peasant garb "made him look like an extra out of Dr. Zhivago."

Just ask NBC's Tom Brokaw ("Duncan the Wonderhorse") or the people...
