...Upon retirement, a member elected before 1980 can keep this pot of money for his personal use -- a kind of IRA with no strings attached. So far, New York Democrat Stephen Solarz has piled up more than $800,000, as has Illinois Democrat Dan Rostenkowski; New Jersey Republican Matthew Rinaldo has $600,000. A law passed in 1979 allows members elected after that date to return unused campaign money to a charity, the member's political party or contributors...

Scallops of all sorts were on so many menus, in fact, that those mollusks soon may show up on the endangered-species list. Pasta was much favored, least surprisingly for a dinner given by Ambassador and Mrs. Rinaldo Petrignani, who served penne with smoked salmon to such Reagan buddies as the Walter Annenbergs, the Frank Sinatras, the Charles Wicks, Attorney General and Mrs. William French Smith and the Ed Meeses. Many of the same guests were expected to partake of pasta shells alla carbonara at a White House luncheon for 150 following the Sunday swearing-in ceremony. Pasta primavera...
