THEATER COMPANY OF BOSTON, University of Rhode Island, Kingston. Eugene Ionesco's Exit the King, an absurd drama about death, July 18-21 and July 25-28; Arthur Miller's autobiographical After the Fall, Aug. 1-4 and 8-11; a play by Günter Grass, The Plebeians Rehearse the Uprising...
...Sacramento, two youths dropped Molotov cocktail fire bombs outside Governor Ronald Reagan's home when a bodyguard opened fire. Police said the incident was the probable aftermath to a racial disturbance near by. - In Long Island's suburban Nassau County, police acted on a telephone tip and removed a fragmentation hand grenade set to explode at the turn of a heater switch in a car belonging to County Executive Eugene Nickerson...

He wakes up singing "You can take Salem out of the country...

Avram points with satisfaction to an annual average cost of only $5,000 for patients treated in his dialysis department at the Prospect Heights Division of Long Island College Hospital. This is hardly more than home treatment would cost, and since most of Dr. Avram's patients are poor, home treatment would not be practical. No less remarkable, the Prospect Heights roster lists 33 patients, more than are treated at most dialysis centers with more equipment and heavy federal...
