The Allman Brothers Band may have broken up, mostly over the drug and marital problems of Lead Vocalist Gregg Allman, but its brand of bluesy Southern rock lives on with Betts & Co. Betts, whose song writing and soaring guitar solos helped gun the Allman band's engine, keeps his foot to the floor with his new group's debut album.

...Harry Truman's church. Silver-haired Senior Minister Charles Trentham greeted the Carters with outstretched arms. Said he: "This church undergirds you and surrounds your family with prayers." Before the service, Jimmy and Rosalynn attended an adult Sunday-school class, where the teacher. Insurance Executive Fred Gregg, exclaimed, "Mr. President, you know this Bible real good-you help me out." Carter intends to do just that; he said he would like to teach the class once a month...
