...prisoners to guard other inmates; he claimed that the shooting was an accident. But Arthur's lawyers argued that Williams' record made him unfit to be trusted with firearms. Since the defense did not ask for a jury, the decision was up to Federal Judge William Keady. Late last month Keady ordered Arterbury to pay $85,000 in damages to Arthur. "The moral sense of all reasonable men," said the judge, "would be shocked by the punishment visited upon the plaintiff, yet a minor, as a direct result of inattentive and careless prison administration...
...well, that's Catherine Deneuve for you. At least that's the Deneuve of late, for while La Chamade is based on a Françoise Sagan novel, it somewhat resembles Belle de Jour and, to a lesser extent, The April Fools. But it lacks the surrealistic pathology of Belle and the slick American romance of Fools. Its milieu, instead, is the typical Sagan domain of croquet on Parisian lawns and seaside Scrabble on the Cote d'Azur, of cliquishness and banal cleverness ("I'm wearing black because it's so gay"), of highly polished...
Only Right. Carmakers grant rebates to dealers on autos sold during the cleanup. The average rebate is $200, but it can run much higher on expensive models. This bonus is what enables dealers to pare prices in late summer.

These cars, ordinarily well cared for and loaded with optional equipment, are generally the last to be sold, but they often go at prices well below the cleanup levels. Most dealers get a 50 rebate from the manufacturer for every mile shown on the speedometers of their demonstration cars, and they may be willing to pass on the saving to the customer. A $3,100 Chevrolet Impala with 5,000 miles, for example, may cost the dealer only...
Obstacle Course. Yablonski, 59, himself a member of the 140,000-member union's ruling elite, is the first serious challenger for the U.M.W. leadership since the late John L. Lewis turned back Insurgent John Brophy's bid in 1926. The raspy-voiced Pennsylvanian has served on the union's international executive board for 27 years. Earlier this year, Boyle named him acting director of the "NonPartisan League,"; the union's powerful political arm. Yablonski's announcement of his candidacy last May cost him that...
