...month acquaintance with Charles Chaplin as "entirely on the esoteric side," the comedian packed sleek, sloe-eyed Oona into a car, picked up the certificate and a case of champagne at Santa Barbara, sped to coastal Carpinteria, nervously found the finger for her first and his fourth wedding ring, hid himself and his bride somewhere in Montecito. Only the week before he had agreed to pay his pre-Oona protegee Joan Berry $2,500 down, legal costs, and support until the blood test which may or may not show that he did not father her unborn child. From the white...

...occupation. The remarkable 218-page report of Ryan's five-month investigation, involving 200 interviews around the world, was released last week: it confirms that the Army's Counter Intelligence Corps (CIC) hired Barbie as a spy in Germany after World War II and for four years hid him from the French, who were eager to prosecute him. In 1951 his Army protectors helped Barbie escape to Bolivia, where he prospered and traveled as a free man until last February, when a new Bolivian regime turned him over to France. Ryan's report concluded that the Army...

From Sid Caesar and Carol Burnett to Lily Tomlin, Gilda Radner and Aykroyd, these performers had enough energy and scarifying talent to burst...

...third day of bombing in April 1982. Scrambling up a goat path into the 14,000-ft. mountains along the southern edge of the Hindu Kush, the fugitives took nothing with them but thin clothing, a little bread and some dried mulberry flour. For 40 days they hid behind boulders and in mountain caves. Each night it snowed; each day they saw Soviet planes bomb and strafe the valley below. The fatalities included 40 adults and about 70 children-20 having died from the bombings and as many as 50 from the cold or hunger. Perhaps 1,200 refugees trekked...

...several times last year Phil stood quivering and feverish in the living room, his loaded pistol pointed toward imaginary enemies he knew were lurking in the garage. Rita, emaciated like her husband, had her own bogeymen?strangers with X-ray vision outside the draped bedroom window?and she hid from them in the closet. The couple's paranoia was fleetingly sliced away, of course, as soon as they got high: they "free-based," breathing a distilled cocaine vapor, Phil alone all night with his glass water pipe and thimble of coke, Rita in another room with hers. In the mornings...
