...Chappaquiddick did him in: "People remembered more than he thought they would," one man says, and he is right. Jogging memories across the state, New Hampshire's biggest paper, The Manchester Union-Leader, last week ran the Washington Star series on Kennedy's dealings with long-legged rather mysterious Lana, a "European countess...
...break came on the Meat Loaf Bat out of Hell album, where she undercut Loafs buffalo bellows with some full-throated purring. The most overtly sexual of this quartet, Foley tries for what she calls "the woman-child look," but turns out more like an F.W. Woolworth vision of Lana Turner.

By punching out these symbols, or lexigrams, as they are called, on a computer-monitored console, which displayed them on an overhead screen, Lana...
...Like Lana, Sherman and Austin first had to be introduced to Yerkish. Encouraged by praise and rewards of food, they soon learned the lexigrams for different foods and could identify foods by hitting the right buttons on their console. But could they be taught to exchange such information as well...
