...cooks, however, the broth is delicious. From the opening, on- your-toes Harlem Scat, through the kick-up-your-heels flapper dance of The Hairdo Hop, past the wild jungle dance of Stix, round the sultry, smoky bend of A Blues for Two Women and back home to Harlem for the finale, Queenie Pie is unmistakably the work of the grand Duke. In the pit, the Duke Ellington Orchestra steps through the score's uptown opulence with high style, trumpets growling and keyboards swinging, while onstage, members of Director-Choreograp her Garth Fagan's Bucket Dance Theater juke and okeydoke...

...more command than any pitcher I ever saw." Off the field, absently tapping his drums or vaguely thinking of marriage, Gooden is also the picture of control. Strawberry, the Met outfielder Gooden is no longer mistaken for, took a square look at his friend in his wet new hairdo this spring to see if $1.32 million wears any differently than $450,000 wore last season or $40,000 did the year before. It has bought a few more chains (to complement his golden smile), but also a new house for his parents. "I think it's just another natural gift...

...start old and get younger?" keens Iona (Annie Potts), a perky eccentric in her 30s who has never discarded the totems of a happily trashy youth: prom dress, beehive hairdo and the Association crooning Cherish. But there is enough sweet irony in her voice to suggest that she has looked into the face of her teenage pal Andie (Molly Ringwald) and seen just why the Fountain of Youth is laced with citric acid. Teenhood is the pits. Faces are constantly aflush with anger, ardor, embarrassment. Anguish over dates and grades streaks the first application of mascara. Clique rivalries make...

...double-life and a harrowing operation-room job, while her husbands are both puffy-faced, big-nosed, blustering and apopleptic. Between his son's radical politics and a six-million-franc lawsuit he's filed, Philippe is in a constant, hopeless rage; while Vincent, with a bouffant hairdo that looks like Jerry Lee Lewis gone awry is forever out-of-control over his out-of-control students...

Falwell these days, however, is less the bullying, backwater figure that he used to be. Gone are the polyester suits, half boots and swept-back hairdo of his early ministry. A cruel streak used to show up in his arguments then. Today the belligerency is more concealed, although last week's attack on Bishop Desmond Tutu demonstrates that the streak runs deep. Falwell used to rail that homosexuals would spend an eternity in hell. He still condemns homosexuality but now expresses sympathy for those who practice it.
