DIED. MADELINE KAHN, 57, devilishly ditsy singer-comedian; of ovarian cancer; in New York City. A diva of light farce, Kahn was Oscar-nominated for best supporting floozy in Paper Moon (1973) and Blazing Saddles (1974). She won a 1993 Tony for Best Actress in The Sisters Rosensweig...
...soundtrack is any indication of the film to come, Man on the Moon, based on the life of comedian Andy Kaufman (Taxi), is going to be a very interesting, eccentric ride.

Baer '00 sketched the first chalk lines of this "Where The Wild Things Are" Mural because "when we moved in to the suite, the word 'DEATH' was scrawled across the wall in gray paint." He painted in his chalk lines to cover the entire wall of Quincy B-11 with Max and a monster arching their backs to the sky. The book was Baer's childhood favorite...
