...Theodore Charach, a Los Angeles-based freelance broadcaster. Charach was at the scene of the shooting, and has been opportunistically working on his thesis ever since, despite rebuffs from state and local officials, other journalists and Kennedy friends. After finding a few backers, he and French Film Maker Gerard Alcan patched together the film, which relies essentially on these points...
Incredible Acts. The owner was a husky, twice-married man of 27 named Gerard John Schaefer Jr., a former Martin County deputy sheriff. He was serving a one-year term in the county jail for picking up two hitchhiking girls, binding them and threatening them with hanging. Schaefer said he had never seen the Place girl; Mrs. Place swore he was the "Jerry Shephard" who had driven off with...
...finds herself in limbo, on her way to damnation. She talks Lucifer's regional vice president (John Clemens) into giving her a chance to wallow in lust be fore being whisked off to her fate.

All too often avant-garde music looms as a forbidding wilderness of inhospitable sounds. Not this album of contemporary trumpet music performed by versatile Trumpeter Schwarz. The Sonata by Davies, who also composed the opera Taverner, is sequential but melodic. Composer Dlugozewski, who studied with Varese, employs a variety of mutes and experimental techniques without sacrificing emotional content. Composer Hellerman, a Columbia University faculty...
