...Pink Panther begins with an intricate and extremely dexterous jewel robbery, a sequence that Edwards stages with great finesse. The Pink Panther is a priceless jewel, and Clouseau must find out what happened to it. His major suspect-who, needless to say, is probably innocent-is the suave cat burglar Sir Charles Litton (Christopher Plummer), a character amusingly and lovingly modeled on Gary Grant in Hitchcock's To Catch a Thief. Litton must track down the real culprits while Clouseau stalks him. There is little question of ever catching Litton, of course, but the unnatural disasters that Clouseau...
...colt is Horse of the Year. They could be wasting their time. The top three-year-old thoroughbred may not even have been in the starting gate at Churchill Downs or Pimlico. Nor is it likely to be at Belmont on June 7 for the Belmont Stakes, the third jewel in racing's Triple Crown. The superhorse of 1975 could very well be a lady: Ruffian, the fastest filly in memory. Before the summer is out, she may get a chance to prove her supremacy in a clash with the colts...

A few industries, notably those making machine tools and equipment for oil and coal extraction, are doing well, but recovery for most of the region's heavy industry and appliance makers still hinges on an upturn in housing and autos...
Queenly Beehive. At 8:37 a.m., the propitious moment selected by court astrologers more than a year earlier, the royal priest placed the mammoth jewel-encrusted crown on the King's head and a diamond tiara atop Queen Aishwarya's beehive hairdo. Then came salutes from the King's loyal subjects, starting with three-year-old Prince Deependra decked out in a miniature military uniform. For the afternoon parade-music was provided by regimental bands, including one of Nepalese bagpipers-the royal couple rode on the King's tusker elephant, Prem Prasad, while the other...
