...people went to record shops and bought the Beatles' 13th album, Seargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Few of these people were Beatlemaniacs; many of them were Beatleologists. Whereas the Beatlemaniac drowned out the Beatles with cathartic squeals, the Beatleologist listens so carefully that he can hear Ringo singing submarine in the third verse on the mono record, but clubmarine on the stereo. Beatleologists, in varying degrees of erudition, are the new breed of Beatles fan, and they may make the Beatles more contemplated than Buddha...
...Weybridge, Surrey, by two white horses in front with two more trotting at the rear. The new Beatlemobile, which cost Lennon about $10,000 to buy and have refurbished, "is really a toy for four-year-old Julian," said John, who is vacationing en famille in Greece with the Ringo Starrs and Paul McCartney.

The film outgrossed Mary Poppins and My Fair Lady in Italy, will net an estimated $10 million on its $250,000 investment in worldwide distribution.

While another dance-hall girl (Janice Rule) and a young boy conspire to knock off the villain next time he shows up, the mayor (Henry Fonda) is too frightened to kill and too tired to run. Anxious only to rebuild Hard Times and make it a good place for business, he gets...
...Beatles are slipping, their record sales provide no clue, for Revolver popped straight up the record charts. It includes a haunting, folklike ballad, mostly by Paul ("Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church Where a wedding has been"), and Yellow Submarine, a bright, repetitive ditty delivered by Ringo. The album has considerable variety in mood, harmony and orchestration-including Oriental overtones provided by a tabla in Love You To, and violins, violas and cellos for poor Eleanor Rigby...
