...Hearst continued her prayers, but sank into a deeper depression. Both she and her husband questioned whether Patty would ever resume her normal place in the family. William (Willie) Randolph Hearst III, Patty's cousin and Randolph Hearst's protégé on the Examiner, recalled last week: "After a certain point, I think they were resigned to the fact that she wasn't going to turn herself in." To get away from "painful memories," the Hearsts moved into an apartment on San Francisco's Nob Hill; it was Feb. 20-Patty's 21st...
Security Company Executive Tom Reddin, whom Davis succeeded as L.A.'s top cop, thinks his protégé's bark is worse than his bite. Says Reddin: "People may remember him by his statements rather than his accomplishments." City Attorney Burt Pines certainly will. Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley, a 1964 classmate of Davis at the police academy, recently had to negotiate a truce after Davis attacked Pines for being "soft" on pornographers, and Pines struck back, questioning the chief's professionalism in making charges without evidence.

...lovable old grandpa on The Waltons' TV series, but Actor Will Geer, 73, is still the leading man in some circles.

Enough people, it turns out, to earn him no less than five commissions worth a total of $30,000 in fees. Burton, a protégé of Germany's Hans Werner Henze and a skilled hand in a variety of contemporary stylings, has composed a symphony (Ariel), which the National Symphony will perform next season. He is also writing a trio of one-act operas, one of which will be based...
...enormous sex drive. He buried two wives and outlived all his innumerable pushovers. Third Wife Jennifer, 60 years his junior, combines the odd satisfaction of caring for a living legend with the freedom of being a successful traveling photographer. Others close to the old man are a protégé, who is also a White House aide; a male secretary and talented ghostwriter reminiscent of Robert Craft, Igor Stravinsky's invaluable chronicler; and a young bearded man, who is either Lumen's grandson or his natural son. In friskier days, Humanitarian Sam forced himself on his daughter...
