UNDER MILK WOOD. Dylan Thomas wrote this verse play, as he put it, "for voices." The images that Director Andrew Sinclair has added to his film adaptation do not complement Thomas' language; they detract from it. The language that comes cascading off the sound track is bottled into florid captions for an illustrated travel guide to Wales. Whenever Sinclair is not being resolutely literal-minded, he diverts himself by being fantastical. It will not do for Richard Burton merely to read the first voice. He must appear, all rumpled and dour and selfabsorbed, like some wandering Welshman cursed...
Looking good is half the fun. "Even though a guy isn't a good athlete he can get all dressed up like one," says Ken Sinclair, vice president of Questor Corp., an equipment maker. "And once he is inference?" the Guy lodge, who Chirico, a knows lodge the dif owner at Hunter Mountain, N.Y., observes...
...weekly battle journalists became something else-students of a new medium. Each week, as they came from their mailboxes or newsstands, Americans experienced the powerful after-effects of a new art called "photojournalism."

Bleak Memories. Shula and his deadly Dolphins are the wildest thing to hit Miami since Nick the Greek and a team of shills took Oilman Harry Sinclair for $900,000 at a memorable craps party. Car bumpers are plastered with "I Am a Dol-Fan" stickers; "Dial-a-Dolphin" programs are stealing the play away from local disk jockeys. Raving fans pack the Orange Bowl (capacity: 80,010) to wave white handkerchiefs at their rugged young superteam. The reason is simple: more than anything Miami loves a winner, and Shula's Dolphins are the biggest winners in pro football...
This year two personable contestants face one another in the Twelfth. Democrat Gerry Studds, 35, is a former prep school teacher and Foreign Service officer who even learned Portuguese to improve his image among immigrant New Bedford voters. Opponent William Weeks, 46, is strictly Brahmin: Father Sinclair was Dwight Eisenhower's Commerce Secretary; Grandfather John was Coolidge's Secretary of War. After graduating from Harvard, Weeks himself served for a time as an assistant dean of freshmen at the college. The two are running neck and neck, but McGovern liberalism is hurting Studds...
