BORIS YELTSIN OBLITERATED A VILLAGE last week and called it a victory. A leading Moscow newspaper described the Russian army's running battle with Chechen rebels as "10 days of pain, impotence and shame." But Yeltsin, with a flourish of newspeak reminiscent of Soviet days, simply declared himself a winner. His troops, he claimed at a news conference in the Kremlin, killed 153 Chechens, captured 28, and freed 82 hostages after besieging Pervomaiskoye, a hamlet in far-off Dagestan. "We have taught Dudayev a sound lesson," Yeltsin said, referring to Chechen separatist leader Jokhar Dudayev. Now, Yeltsin threatened, Russia will...

That is a shame because they really are beautiful to watch: Aikman, who may be an even better big-game quarterback than Joe Montana; Smith, whose 150 yds. (on a Herculean 35 carries) against the Packers gave him a record-tying sixth postseason game with 100 yds. or more rushing; Irvin, who laughed at Green Bay's single coverage with seven receptions for 100 yds. and two touchdowns. And say what you will about Sanders, he's a blast when he gets his hands on the ball via interception, reception, reverse, return, whatever...

...Messiah. The response to his productions of The America Play and The Accident, both on the A.R.T. New Stage, was so positive one would think he was paying people to say nice things about him (he wasn't). So, with that kind of build-up, it's a shame that his first production on the Loeb Mainstage isn't perfect...

...YEAR-OLD TO BE MURDERED is a shame. However, America does not have a duty to protect children from their parents. The family has a duty to safeguard its own members. The girl should not be "let down by the system" because there should be no system, child welfare, court or otherwise. As a family-law attorney, I must support the right of parents to see their children under the basic concepts of American rights and freedoms. No system should interfere with this, and none can protect a child from its own parent. Final responsibility lies with the family...
