...this at a Government launch site." The site was, in fact, on a 19,000-acre ranch lent by Oil Mogul Toddie Lee Wynne, 85, one of SSI's main financial angels, who died a few hours before liftoff. With the, countdown under way, a launching-pad engineer wandered out to Conestoga I and, with a felt-tipped pen, scribbled on the rocket, GOD BLESS YOU, TODDIE LEE WYNNE.

...surprising participant: Lyn Nofziger, until last January chief White House political adviser and a staunch Reagan loyalist. There, too, were three other estranged Administration officials: former Assistant Treasury Secretary Paul Craig Roberts, former Treasury Under Secretary Norman Ture and former Director of Policy Development Martin Anderson. Direct-Mail Mogul Richard Viguerie, publisher of the New Right Conservative Digest, and Conservative Caucus President Howard Phillips were probably the most thoroughly disenchanted erstwhile Reaganites. Neo-conservative Intellectual Irving Kristol came, as did PepsiCo Chairman Don Kendall and Richard Lesher, the dapper, steely president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Also on hand...

...enchanting as E.T., no one can complain. But a prodigiously gifted film maker like Spielberg might hold even his youthful fans if he were to expand his range and make other kinds of movies-as Lucas and John Carpenter and Brian De Palma might. The stray adventurous mogul might be persuaded to finance their ventures into the adult world. And the baby-boom audience, just now approaching early middle age, might follow them. All this could happen tomorrow, and nobody could guarantee that the movie industry would break another box-office record. But the eager faces in those long summer...
