...they can find. It is about 1:45 p.m., and the line-up begins. Cameramen use their tripods and lenses, some big enough to polevault with, to clear away the opposition. But the Secret Service is checking all bags. We descend two very gray, concrete flights of steps and peek out into the mist. God is spitting on Logan airport as we find our places and, like everybody else, go running for the front row. They're not checking boarding passes...
...Suzanne Somers or smooth Donald Sutherland, however, the memento is a little more exotic. Shooting scenes in the capital for Nothing Personal, a comedy in which they play two lawyers fighting a nefarious corporation while falling in love with each other, Somers and Sutherland took time out for a peek at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Jimmy Carter was busy and Rosalynn was out of town as they rolled up to the gate in his and her studio limousines, but swinging Son Chip happened to be on hand. "I see you're doing your part for the energy crisis," chided Chip...

Showtime does not offer sports; it concentrates on movies and entertainment specials, many for an older audience attuned to country and western music. But it is trying more adventurous approaches too. In March it treated viewers to a peek at the topless chorus girls of the Folies Bergere in Paris (a similar show had been on HBO earlier).

He coaxes Christine's permed frizz into a Cosmo-mane of curls, daubing her face with goo and powder. Sneaking a peek in the mirror, she is aghast. Her mouth is caked in red sludge. "It should have blood dripping from it," she jokes. The photographer is unimpressed. What Christine hates most is the fake eyelashes...
Such arguments seemed to cut little ice with Trautwein. "The case is being tried; a man is charged with murder . . . You still say Myron Farber should be the judge," said Trautwein indignantly. All he was asking, the judge continued, was "to let us take a little peek." So impatient was Trautwein to punish Farber, 40, and the Times that he began handing down sentences before pronouncing them guilty. Realizing his mistake, Trautwein declared sheepishly, "I'm putting the cart before the horse." Then he slapped both the paper and the reporter with stiff coercive civil and punitive criminal contempt sentences...
