...HURRICANE SEASON wasn't always a party time on Fire Island. The village old-timers--whose words rang loud in the ears of everyone who stepped on the ferry that Monday morning, and even louder in the ears of those who stayed--still speak reverently of 1938. For it was on September 21 of that year that the worst natural disaster in American history sprang suddenly out of the South Atlantic, howled up the Eastern seaboard, and mercilessly devoured half our town in its churning 40-foot waves. Most who stayed for the party that time died. It wasn...

Have you ever felt the cobwebs of your soul tingle the way Hunter Thompson's Samoan attorney's did when that great rocking electric buzz flew near, louder, but never quite loud enough? Well, I have just the right Black and Blue buzz for you--it flew in the other day and squashed my roommates flat. The Rolling Stones' latest album. Hot Stuff is the finest example around of blues-finger disco--turn it up and watch the room shudder the way the highway does when its 100 in the shade.

At Paul Sauvé Arena in the city's Francophone North End, 6,000 supporters of the Parti Québécois wept, cheered and sang "Tomorrow belongs to us ..." as Péquiste Party Leader René Lévesque, 54, appeared to claim victory. In an extraordinary election...

...woman, and one who was trying to excise herself from the male society she had tailored herself into. She can't do it. Hecht and MacArthur's play proved that it was not indestructable when Billy Wilder made it move like a sludge barge. His Girl Friday is louder and faster than any other movie ever made. Cary Grant did everything right as Walter Burns; it must have been a great surprise to see him work in this sort of part after the more submissive work he'd been used to. Rosalind Russell talks like a robot with too many...
