...only know what I read in the paper," said Australian Songwriter Peter Allen, 30, commenting on reports that his wife Liza Minnelli, 28, will marry Movie Producer Jack Haley Jr., 40. Then he signed official divorce papers, saying "When you've been separated longer than you were married, it's time to get a divorce." Peter and Liza were married in 1967 but have lived apart since 1970. He denies that marriage to an ambitious star maimed his own career as a singer.

Ah, yes, patrons like the Baroness Marie-Hélène de Rothschild would angel the operation, and people like Amanda Burden, Princess Grace, the Charles...
Cabaret. with Liza Minelli, Joel Grey, Michael York. Another movie about German decadence, but this one plays cleaner than most. Which isn't saying much. Its Germans are on the whole a piggish disreputable bunch. There is your bisexual decaying aristocrat, your mother loving young men, the soldiers who seem to like each other better than the women. Joel Grey is terrific, and Minelli's "Money, Money" would make just about anything worthwhile. Cinema Kenmore Square...
