...Atticus Finch in the 1963 movie To Kill a Mockingbird, Gregory Peck captured well the kindly, yet determined sensibilities of a rural Southern lawyer. The actor has moved north to Gettysburg, Pa., for his next role, in The Blue and the Gray, an eight-hour CBS TV mini-series to be aired next March. Queuing up in a distinguished line that includes Walter Huston, Henry Fonda, Raymond Massey and Hal Holbrook, Peck, 65, is taking up stovepipe and chin whiskers to portray Abraham Lincoln. "I'm in seven scenes," says Greg, "but I only get to speak in five...
...getting the ball back, Harvard shifted into its double-wing, two tight-end offense and bullied the ball in. "We had seen that on the films and we were ready for it," Laycock said, "but they just knocked us over." Callinan rumbled 26 yards on three carries in the mini-drive and Acheson's plunge put the game away: THE NOTEBOOK: Senior split end Dirk Killen was the biggest beneficiary of Cuccia's fine passing day, gathering in a pair of aerials for 57 yards.

...think my stuff is more suitable for 1981 than it was in 1971," Lehrer says and, in keeping with that assumption, he has seen a recent mini-renaissance of his work.

He also has published a new collection of his songs called Too Many Songs by Tom Lehrer (Pantheon; $16.50), with...
Even before the campaign began in late summer, far more was clearly at stake than one parliamentary seat. For the Tories, who had held the constituency since 1948, the election was a mini-referendum on Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's hardline, rightist economic policies. Given the government's low standing in the polls, moreover, it was an election that Labor, bedeviled with internal problems of its own, could not afford to lose if the party were to retain its standing in opposition. For the recently created alliance, the race was the big chance. Victory for Pitt offered...
...superstar. But that can't stop him from trying, or keep me from liking him. There are many problems with this live set, though there shouldn't be. Jeffreys' tour with the Rumour this summer blew away his studio (and studio musician) versions of his reggae-pop-rock mini-anthems. And Adult was taped at the two places in the world that love Garland Jeffreys, New York and Paris. But something rings false. Maybe it's that the opening song, his classic "Wild in the Streets", was played last in concert, and most of the songs following are encores. There...
