While yesterday's high flyers are out of fashion, traditional investments like bonds, stocks and even bank accounts are back in favor. Many financial advisers suggest that their clients look at bonds. Says James Sinclair, a onetime gold bug: "The next big play out there is not gold, but Treasury bills and bonds."

In Hollywood Color Portraits (Morrow; 157 pages; $15.95) Cinema Historian John Kobal has collected 74 of these astonishing pictures. Greats from W.C.
