...successful career as a school administrator, and now manages their income of $500,000 to $1 million a year. He is more likely to be found jogging than watching the tube, and four years ago he ran the Boston Marathon in the creditable time of 3 hr. 29 min. Not all of the one-line zappers come from her side of the table; Bill will breeze into the house and announce with a big smile that he has just been to the library and that all of her books were in. She replies that he looked like a dead fish...
...playing at movie theaters not very near you: the two versions of Director Leone's $28 million gangster epic. If you wish to see the sprawling, lurid, hallucinatory film cut to Leone's specifications at 3 hr. 47 min., you need only make a pilgrimage to Paris (where the film opened to good business two weeks ago) or, later this month, to a single theater in Chicago, where the Leone version will have its American premiere. If you want to see the Ladd Co.'s cut-brisk, less ambitious and audacious, dramatically more coherent...
...Ladd Co., beset in the past year by the commercial flops of The Right Stuff, Star 80 and Mike's Murder, could not have been happy to find itself with one more auteurist fantasia.

Even now, Leone is planning to release a "full" version-all 4 hr. 10 min.-to Italian television in three years. And after that, who knows where it might show up? Perhaps, in some future life, Leone's flawed, fascinating epic will live happily ever after ... in America...
...makes an incision in the crown and then tugs firmly on the scalp, pulling hair-covered areas from the sides of the head toward the bare area on top (see diagram). A section of the bald scalp is cut away, and the incision is closed with stitches. The 60-min. procedure may be repeated to reduce further the size of the bald spot, which is eventually filled in with transplanted plugs. The approximate cost of surgery each time: $1,200. However, says San Francisco Dermatologist Alan Gaynor, in one out of four cases the patient's scalp...
