Twiggy, who is 5 ft. 6 in. tall, weighed 91 lbs. at the height of her career, has now ballooned to 112 lbs., and is embarking on a diet to stave off pregnancy pounds. She faces childbirth philosophically: "It's all a bit scary in a way because it's the first one. But then people have them in forests and rice fields, don't they? And they all seem to manage...

In the Church of Satan, worship equipment includes candles, a bell, a chalice, elixir, a sword, a gong, parchment and "a model phallus." (Not that Army chaplains are likely to have to supply them, since ritual secrecy is also part of Satanism.) There is also the Native American Church, an Indian group that has won court approval to get high on peyote during weekly or monthly rituals that run all night. The Army does not state whether the peyote rites must end in time for reveille...
