...tactic has had little impact. In fact, record shops may be on the way toward luring browsers away from dirty-book shops. Some current albums: Wild Angel by Nelson Slater (girl wearing a chain gag); Bloodstone's Do You Wanna Do a Thing? (gang-rape scene); Pure Food and Drug Act's Choice Cuts (woman's bare buttocks stamped with the album title). A group called the Ohio Players has illustrated a series of albums with sadistic photos. Among them: a woman chained, a woman being hanged, and a woman hugging a man with one hand while...
...Times, to be sure, has undergone considerable evolutionary change over the years; but it long considered itself an encyclopedic "newspaper of record" for "thoughtful, pure-minded people," as Adolph Ochs defined his audience when he took over the paper back in 1896.

Declared corporate profits climbed by about 40% from 1968 to 1976; yet "real" earnings, adjusted for inflation, have risen hardly...
...retired a year ago at 29 (TIME, Jan. 5, 1976). A shy, painstaking woman, she found the offstage demands of stardom nearly unbearable, especially after her marriage to A.B.T. Dancer Terry Orr collapsed. The dance world was stunned. Gregory is considered the finest American-trained ballet dancer, with a pure, elegant style that makes music and choreography flow together...
