...feats of the past in a more difficult manner or to invent stunts whose nature is often, necessarily, more than somewhat bizarre. Thus we see the attempt by Mountaineer Tabin's group to climb Everest by an approach once thought foolhardy, and the astonishing accomplishment of Italian Superclimber Reinhold Messner three years ago of reaching Everest's summit alone and without oxygen...
...Lamprecht) takes an oath to stay honest. In his terms, that means peddling tie clips, shoelaces, sex books, even Nazi newspapers, but not pimping or joining a gang of thieves led by the brusque dandy Pums (Ivan Desny) and including his friend Meek (Franz Buchrieser) and the reptilian sadist Reinhold (Gottfried John). Franz's reward for innocently going with the gang on a heist one night is to be pushed by Reinhold from the van and have his right arm crushed under the wheel of an approaching car. Reinhold pushes other things on Franz: his cast-off women. Soon...
...explaining why he will help launch a new magazine called Catholicism in Crisis, Michael Novak [Nov. 8] makes dubious use of the precedent set by Reinhold Niebuhr in establishing Christianity and Crisis.

Novak and other lay intellectuals plan to launch this month a similar magazine, Catholicism in Crisis. Sums up Novak: "The laity is supposed to lead in Christian reflection on this-worldly matters...
...events, real people, only the names changed to make everything seem so awesomely bogus. Journalist Cameron Crowe, then 22, spent the 1979-80 school year undercover at "Ridgemont High" in Southern California, then sculpted his observations into a book. Crowe's screenplay reunites his familiar cast: Brad (Judge Reinhold) is the lazily macho chef at the best fast-food joint in town. Damone (Robert Romanus) is the greaser who is about two-fifths as cool as he thinks he is. Spicoli (Sean Penn) is a premature beach bum with a glutinous Valley Boy drawl; he believes that "surfing...
