Twos and Lessons. The petite, blue-eyed architect of these events hopes that her myths "are speaking out against imposed authority, against ruts and for change." At 48, she no longer dances regularly, but is busily experimenting with new variations of her myth form. So far she has concocted something called "rituals" (which are, in effect, mini-myths) and "twos" (which require participants to act as couples throughout). Next month, at Los Angeles' Music Center, she will stage her most ambitious undertaking to date: a Watts myth. "It will not be a black-white confrontation," she says, "but rather...
...that it commanded a price of $8 or more per capsule. The predictable result is that nearly all the "THC" now being consumed, by sniffing or otherwise, is not really THC at all. Instead, it may be talcum powder, an amphetamine ("benny"), LSD or, more likely, a tranquilizer no longer approved for human use but still used to knock out ailing rhinoceroses and elephants in zoos...
Last week, just 100 days after the Memorial Center's dedication, Atlantans were shocked to hear that the ballet, opera and dramatic repertory were folding.

The paper normally goes to press around 3:30 p.m. but will hold for an hour or longer if a papal announcement is expected. The twelve editorial staffers, who include both laymen and priests, rarely worry about deadlines; if they miss one day's edition, they merely put their copy in a drawer until the morrow...
...relatively short-haul carrier. It generates 45% of its revenues within the crowded Golden Triangle and much of the rest from the short hops that Former Chairman Eddie Rickenbacker once characterized as "Tobacco Road stops." Fare structures are generally less profitable on short hauls than on longer flights. And Eastern's concentration on densely traveled routes has left the carrier vulnerable to the traffic congestion that the FAA is desperate to alleviate; delays cost the line $6,000,000 more last year than...
