When she first appears onstage, a Soviet spy asks her if she is a typical student. "I guess I am typical," replies Brooke Shields. "I'm taking 17 units." Not much else seemed average about Shields, 18, as the media flocked to cover her college stage debut last week in Princeton University's 95th annual Triangle Club student revue. Revel Without a Pause features the comely coed in five short skits, including a musical number with a tune called Spiller, a sendup of Michael Jackson's Thriller.

And she's not easy to find (I happen to want a lot in a woman and prove willing to accept very little less. I guess you're that way as well).

...love this city. I loved living here and being so close to the seat of power, being part of the political system." It is not hard to guess that the city is Washington, D.C., but the identity of the speaker might come as a surprise to those who thought of Rosalynn Carter, 56, as a down-home sort of woman who was never comfortable with the insider preening and cosseting that embroider life in the nation's capital. In town last week to see old friends and attend a signing party for her new book, First Lady from Plains...
