Agencies that help find coed roommates make it clear to applicants that rent and chores are divided, and partners have separate bedrooms. "With the woman paying half the rent, sex privileges are not included," says Peggy Beltran of Housemates, Unlimited, in Hollywood. Beltran advises that both parties state house rules plainly before they move in together. Still, coed living can undermine the partners' social lives.

Old tyrants retired, sank and died; every year some old lion still in power was being proclaimed the last tycoon. Television killed the first set of old men, angry stockholders and ravenous conglomerates killed the second. Louis B.

That is the new Hollywood, An old-timer confided to me one afternoon in L.A. that the only reason the San Fernando Valley was built was for use as a backdrop in an M-C-M musical. It was recently smashed to dust for Earthquake. "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain." Oz orders...
