...Francisco and commute by car and-in some instances-boat. Rents at The Cove range from $185 for a one-bedroom apartment, to $525 for three bedrooms. On the outskirts of Los Angeles, the Penthouse apartments hover over the Pacific shore line, offer tenants a beach, a Gay Nineties-style billiard room, and an acre of terraced gardens with olive, orange and lemon trees...
TRADITIONAL SONGS AND BALLADS (Folkways). The collection is Scottish, the period the 17th and 18th centuries, and the subject is sex.

The Kirov versions of Swan Lake and The Sleeping Beauty are impeccable, if cold. All the principal dancers are technically irreproachable. If they lack the idiosyncrasies that make great stars out of merely superb dancers, at least there is the consoling virtue that it does not matter much, except to close students of the dance, which ballerina...
