Last week most of the survivors never made it to Friday. Filipacchi turned the editorial and financial management of Look (arc. 650,000) over to Jann Wenner, 33, editor and publisher of Rolling Stone, the rock-music tabloid.

Other nights featured debates pitting blacks against whites, those who valued music instruction against those who wanted foreign languages. It was neighborhood against neighborhood, teachers against administration, north Evanston vs. south Evanston. "We may have generated more hostility and more unfulfilled expectations by opening debate than if we had never asked for opinions," says Board Member Mary Anne Wexler, who like many others...
ENCHANTING is an adjective usually reserved for miniature music boxes and grand-children. When used in reference to movies, one expects either Walt Disney or a charming but minor story of middle-aged love, a la Frank Gilroy's Once in Paris. But Francois Truffaut's new film Love on the Run is undeniably enchanting. In fact, it's perfect. Truffaut has created a flawless film which not only belongs to the genre of french romantic comedy, but which will be the yardstick other such films are measured against...
