...together they settled down to a quiet, productive life in New Jersey. Peace was short-lived, however. In 1932, the Lindberghs' first and then only child, 20-month-old Charles Jr., was kidnaped from a second-floor nursery. Ten weeks later, the body was found in a shallow grave in some woods near the Lindbergh home. Bruno Richard Hauptmann, a Bronx carpenter, was later convicted in probably the most celebrated trial of the century, and then electrocuted for the murder. Throughout the search for Charles Jr. and throughout the Hauptmann trial, the Lindberghs were hounded by the press, which...

...world from a fire escape in the Jewish ghetto and spend the rest of your time giving lectures and writing for learned and prestigious journals. You can try it, of course, but your experience in edge city, of bleakness and rancor and the humor they generate, becomes a shallow, vicarious one.

...reason for going to see such a harmless piece of pudding is that its co-feature, The Heartbreak Kid, is passably good entertainment. This Elaine May-directed ditty takes a funny but not-too-tender look at a poor schmuck who falls in love, after a fashion, with a shallow American beauty, played to perfection by the evershallow Cybill Shepard. My dentist in Long Island says this movie is unkind to Jewish women, but be that as it may, it's definitely worth seeing. The main feature begins...

...rivers about 20 miles south of their actual convergence near the Soviet city of Khabarovsk. In a stiff diplomatic note to Peking, the Russians said that they were "ready as before" to allow Chinese ships to bypass the Kazakevicheva Channel during the summer months, when it becomes too shallow for navigation. But, they added, the Chinese must first recognize "the Soviet Union's sovereign rights and territorial integrity"-that is, agree that the actual border is determined by the Kazakevicheva Channel and not by the two rivers...
