...dead man--a watch the German had stopped Lucien himself from stealing, earlier, from France's baggage. And Lucien's peasant instincts are part of a whole social outlook whose chief maxim is to look out for your own interests. One man writes to the Gestapo to denounce his neighbor, with whom he may be quarreling for any number of non-political reasons, fishing rights or a stolen chicken; the war allows the continuation of peacetime rivalries by different means. A peasant maid at the hotel befriends Lucien, takes him to bed, and cautions him not to get mixed...
...women who responded to the questionnaires from which the case histories were drawn said that they either did not know their attacker at all (most of these women were hitchhiking), or that they knew him slightly: he was a friend of a friend, a teacher, an employer or a neighbor.

This year, hi the best show-business tradition, she was strong enough to spin off to her own production. Her new series has relocated her in Manhattan, where Rhoda has actively searched for an apartment, a job and a man-and miraculously found all three. She has also found a supporting cast that rivals Mary's: Harold Gould (Pop), who helped sharpen The Sting; Nancy Walker...
...tracking Hurricane Rhoda for almost as long. She was in fact born in the original Mary Tyler Moore pilot show, a zaftig 150-pounder who made everybody grin-everybody except the first preview audience, a group randomly selected by CBS programmers. Those 300 sages found the tough-talking, overweight neighbor "a negative character...
