...DRINK THE WATER takes a Newark caterer and his family into difficulties behind the Iron Curtain in Plymouth, Mass., Aug. 4-9; Denver, Aug. 4-9; Winooski, Vt., Aug. 12-23; Weston, Vt., Aug. 14-17; Fishkill, N.Y., Aug. 19-24; and Flat Rock...
...become inured to grim box scores: the number of people killed, injured and arrested, the dollars lost from looting and arson.

The five: Chicago's O'Hare, New York's John F. Kennedy and La Guardia, Newark and Washington's National. During the crush from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at J.F.K., for example, the number of flights will be held to 90 per hour, 20 fewer than the highs of last summer, when two-hour delays were common...
