Ballet dancing Rodeo, Rudolf Serkin playing a Schubert impromptu and John Denver singing Rocky Mountain High. Then came a surprise for basketball fan Teng, the clowning of the Harlem Globetrotters. Teng also clearly enjoyed the singing of I Love T'ien An Men Square, in Chinese, by the 80-member National Children's Choir. After the show the Carters, Teng, and his wife, who was holding hands with Amy Carter, rushed up to shake hands with the Globetrotters and kiss the children. Carter finally exited with Teng stage left, his arm draped casually around the Vice Premier...
...camera, Isabelle Adjani is a tough, no-nonsense Frenchwoman who regards acting as an art of deception, "fake all the time." But on camera, she is developing a persona as a romantic heroine. As Victor Hugo's tragic, love-struck daughter in The Story of Adele H., she won an Oscar nomination. In her latest role, Adjani, 23, plays Emily Bronte, author of Wuthering Heights.

Boston's Paper Mate, a division of Gillette Co., one of the largest U.S. penmakers, will launch this spring a new $1.69 refillable pen whose ink is erasable. A $5 million ad campaign for the Eraser Mate will push it as a boon to students, to those who fill out many forms, and indeed just about anyone who needs what the company says "could be the end of writing mistakes...
...next to last song on the record, "Needles and Pins." Like the other slow tune, "Questioningly," "Needles and Pins" is a lover's plaint. Again, there is the problem that Joey Ramone simply sounds weird doing what is actually a creditable Elvis imitation as he sings of failed teenage love. But I suppose I could get used to it, and the song is one more mark of how relatively versatile the group has become...
