...cumbersome tests in use today. Millions of people in at least 46 countries, from psychotics to normal job seekers to Soviet cosmonauts, have puzzled their way through its seemingly endless array of odd and eerie statements (samples: "Much of the time my head seems to hurt all over"; "My soul sometimes leaves my body"; "In walking, I am very careful to step over sidewalk cracks"). Now, at age 44, the archetypal test is getting a face-lift. "This revision is long overdue," says Kent State Psychologist John Graham, one of four professors who have been working on the test...

...Wednesday night, at 10:15. Rita had been out installing drapes; she has her own concern. She went on home to Fostoria, one of those clean, pretty Ohio villages with high-hipped houses on fresh-clipped lots. For four days Rita did not mention her vision to another soul, largely because "I didn't want to be put away." It was hard withholding the news because she "wanted to share it so badly with someone."

As the decade and the show progress, girl groups give way to woman singers, coy jingles to wham- bam sexuality. Says Pattie Darcy, 30, a blond soul stirrer whose repertoire embraces Gore and Franklin: "It shows women letting their hair down, washing the Aqua Net out, giving up their skintight skirts and high heels...

Paul Simon's rock 'n' roll has always been a little different. Raucous, unreconstructed and soul deep, rock is, first of all, about feeling. Or so it is thought to be. But Simon's songs are also about thinking, about the half- rational process of measuring out passion in small portions, like time- release capsules, detonating long after consumption. They are stately, funny and absurd, with elusive rhythmic changes and melodic surprises that come up fast and take the tune off in a whole new direction...
