...Ghosts and Rats. The military's detritus is not confined to the frozen north. Camp Kilmer, near Edison, N.J., is a decaying ghost town of fire-gutted barracks and shattered glass. Unfenced, it is a tempting playground for exploring children. While squirrels and kangaroo rats nest in the bomb craters that pock 10,000 acres of California's Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, the area is off limits to human visitors because it contains unexploded bombs and rockets left there 30 years ago, when the Navy used the park as a test-firing range. Although much...
Heavy Freight. Yet Wonderland is anything but a catalogue of cheap shocks and thrills. It is in fact the author's most ambitious novel-a long and breathless ghost hunt that attempts to confront that elusive subject, human personality. Where does it reside?

...remainder of the new ABC children's shows are, unfortunately, more like the old ones. Funky Phantom is an adventure cartoon centering around three teenagers, their pet dog and a ghost from the Revolutionary War era. Also new is Lidsville. It is a loud and noisy half-hour telling about a kid who took a header into a giant top hat and ended up in a land called Lidsville, inhabited by, of all things, hats. Head bad guy is an inept wizard named Whoo-Doo, who calls his minions "stupid" and classifies them as "little creeps." Jackson 5, still...
