MELINA MERCOURI: ILLYA DARLING (United Artists). The best thing about the current Broadway musical is Melina, and not surprisingly she is the best thing about this musical distillation of it, delivering five of the songs written by Manos Hadjidakis with lyrics by Joe Darion. Amidst the jingly rhythms of the Greek taverna, Melina's breathy bedroom voice stirs a sensuous mood in Piraeus, My Love, is slyly wistful in the Medea Tango as she sings her own version of the myth, and as joyous as ever in her theme song, Never on Sunday...
CLOWN ON FIRE, by Aaron Judah. The author's sure comedic touch relies on metamorphosing Holden Caulfield into a Polish Jewish boy named Joe Hosea and setting him amuck in India...
Early on St. Patrick's Day in 1962, an armed robber snatched $363 from the Diamond Cab Co. in Baltimore. Hearing cries of "Holdup," two cabbies trailed the gunman to 2111 Cocoa Lane and called police to the house. Mrs. Bennie Joe Hayden let them in; upstairs they found her husband undressed, in bed.

Though the loot was never found, a robbery eyewitness and the pursuing cab drivers identified Hayden's clothes, which were deemed...
Simple as it seemed, Bennie Joe's case raised questions about the Fourth Amendment guarantee against "unreasonable search and seizure." Last year a U.S. appellate court upheld the Hayden search as reasonable "hot pursuit." But the court also voided his conviction on the ground that a federal rule barred his seized clothes as evidence. For under a 1921 Supreme Court decision (Gouled v. U.S.), federal police were allowed to seize only four kinds of evidence: the loot of a crime; the tools by which it was committed; the means of escape, such as weapons; and contraband, such as counterfeit...
Last week the Supreme Court junked both state and federal use of the mere-evidence rule in a wide-ranging opinion that kept Bennie Joe Hayden in prison and cheered prosecutors across the country. Speaking for the six-man majority, Justice William J. Brennan held that the Fourth Amendment is primarily aimed at protecting privacy, not property. Over a hot dissent by Justice William O. Douglas,* who predicted police abuse, Brennan suggested that the mere-evidence rule did not protect privacy-and it surely prevented police from using the fruits of a reasonable search. Even so, Brennan warned police...
