...real source is Miami's Donnelly Advertising Co., the giant outdoor ad agency. Donnelly failed to sell the idea to Gillette, but when the agency included a slide of the billboard as comic relief in its sales pitch at last summer's outdoor advertising convention in St. Louis, the boys instantly recognized it as just the thing to stimulate what they like to call "billboard awareness." Donnelly to date has sold 1,500 of the 24-panel posters to billboard owners in all 50 states at $8.50 each...
Next scene: Graves, who is the brother of Gunsmoke's Jim Arness, browses through photos of available M:I agents. He invariably chooses Barbara Bain, the group's sexy smoke screen; Martin Landau (in real life Barbara's husband), master of sleight of hand and disguise; Greg Morris, ace engineer; and Peter Lupus, strong man. The team sets off to the rescue without informing the audience of its plan-which is always a variation of the con game. Each operative wins the enemy's trust by playing a separate innocent role; together, they catch the villain...
...play their home games in a brand-new, 14,400-seat auditorium, dress in a carpeted locker room that is equipped with a sauna bath and pool table.

Sorting like musical pack rats through a patchwork of influences, they piece together witty collages that throb with asymmetrical rhythms and fierce intensity, yet never neglect an unashamed capacity for lyricism. "We are playing jazz that represents our particular generation, time of life and background," says Burton. "The people who have been the major influences for the past five to ten years are now getting to be over 40. We're less traditional than they are, but we're not out to destroy traditions like some avant-garde...
...bill providing for about $250 million in new taxes (on beer, liquor, cigarettes and other sales). State officials argued that the new appropriations would provide teachers with an average increase of $1,340 per year. Despite this generous offer, the F.E.A. insisted that the funds would not provide any real improvement in classroom conditions; too much of the new tax money, the association says, was earmarked for noneducational expenses. The argument is probably academic, since Kirk has threatened to veto the bill because it calls for the new taxes without any provision for approval by voters. As expected, the teachers...
