...campaign for Hubert Humphrey, but his hopes there never materialized. Annoyed, Sinatra turned to the Republicans and campaigned for Ronald Reagan in 1970. Through Reagan's graces Sinatra came to know Spiro Agnew. Cordial friends ever since, Agnew frequently spends long weekends at Sinatra's place in Palm Springs. The Vice President honored Sinatra in January 1971 by flying to Palm Springs for the dedication of the Martin Anthony Sinatra Medical Education Center, Sinatra's monument to his father. Later, while on a good-will tour, Agnew discovered pal Sinatra waiting for him in Portugal. Last summer...
...careful landscaping. At Oak Ridge, a 950-home park near Syracuse, N.Y., the manager arranges barbecues, dances, clambakes, wine tastings and ice-skating parties. At a park near St. Paul, Minn., mobile homes are stacked, apartment-style, on space-saving three-story pads. The Colony, under construction at Palm Springs, Calif., will have a surrounding wall of imported Mexican stone, a sauna, gymnasium, swimming pool, golf course, individual wine cellars, a Rolls-Royce shuttle to the Palm Springs airport and a security system ("an increasingly important attraction," says Carlsberg) with round-the-clock guards and its own radar network...

Henry Kissinger, his own game plan in disarray, went to a Washington Redskins football game, then flew to Palm Springs, Calif., for a New Year's vacation. There, at one point, photographers discovered him strolling with Hollywood Executive Bob Evans. Kissinger's deputy, General Alexander Haig, was "on leave," and outgoing Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird was in Hawaii saying farewell to the Pacific Command. Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler was on a week...
...hard, hostile woman (Rosemary Murphy) she finally meets bears little resemblance to his fond descriptions. Patty's only friend at the forbidding family estate is her husband's half-witted sister (Sian Barbara Allen), who babbles incomprehensibly while pressing a newspaper clipping into Patty's palm. Apparently a homicidal rapist is loose (Screenwriter Heims doesn't miss a trick) and, good heavens!, he looks just like the ne'er-do-well nephew (Richard Thomas), who turns out to be hiding in the laundry room and prowling the corridors at night. Under all this pressure...
