...Beyond what would seem to be a natural instinct to get help quickly, a prompt call to the police would have saved Kennedy from some of the innuendo that followed?if indeed he was innocent of drunkenness. One minor point not explained in any statement is how the two men?after undergoing the experience Kennedy describes?could return to the small group and arouse no curiosity. Kennedy says only that he instructed them "not to alarm Mary Jo's friends." As it is, the suspicion is bound to linger that the only reason the two men did not call...

But the U.S. is prohibited from making a profit on the rocks. If commercial mining...
...western to end all westerns, the film has George Armstrong Custer, Wild Bill Hickok and Buffalo Bill among its characters. But they all seem tame compared with the types portrayed by Dustin Hoffman, Martin Balsam and Faye Dunaway. In Little Big Man, from Thomas Berger's picaresque novel, Dustin plays the hero, Jack Crabb, who survives every imaginable peril until the age of 121, which ought to put the makeup men on their mettle. The putty looms large in Balsam's role as well; he plays a sly con artist whose enraged victims relieve him at various times...
