...shift my bad mood about 110 miles south of Cambridge, it seems that John Pagliaro will not be playing in this year's East-West Shrine game. For some reason, the guys who wear the funny hats and build all the hospitals think that only two people per year from the Ivy League should be allowed to play in their classic. Dartmouth's outstanding defensive lineman Greg Robinson and Curry are this year's due. Where does this leave Pagliaro? I'll tell you where, home in Derby watching Celebrity Bowling after being one of the premier backs...
...Iran remains a one-party state and in fact a one-man dictatorship," TIME Cairo Bureau Chief Wilton Wynn reported last week after a visit to Tehran. "But in a few months the police-state atmosphere has altered drastically to a mood of vastly greater individual freedom and relaxation. Among knowledgeable Iranians it is taken for granted that the liberalization was at least partly in response to the Carter campaign. The Shah apparently feels he has a better chance to buy American military hardware if he burnishes his image...
...monsters in their way; they have the look of mutants, as young cicadas do when molting their husks. The most extreme case is Balthus' Guitar Lesson, 1934-one of the few masterpieces among erotic paintings made by Western artists in the past 50 years.

...first time within recent memory, more whites are leaving the country than are entering it (a net loss of 1,329 this year, v. a net gain of 25,190 in 1976). The economy is in deep recession, the worst in 40 years. The result is a mood of doubt and defiance that is as severe as any in South Africa's history. At the seemingly endless stream of seminars on the national destiny, the questions are inevitably asked: What will South Africa be like in a year? In two? In five? And there is an all too familiar answer...
When Pomme breaks up with Francois, the mood shifts. Having stressed her childlike vulnerability, Goretta has no way to work out an ending that will allow Pomme to survive. The logical solution would have Pomme go her own way, a little wiser and stronger--but then her innocence would be lost. Instead, Goretta chooses to preserve that innocence in a sanitarium. Our last view of Pomme shows her staring into the camera with the look of a child who has been hurt deeply--too deeply to ever forget...
