What Fish Swims in Surf? Manhattan's other two discotheques are clubs. At L'Interdit, in the Gotham, the atmosphere is bistro-red-walled, checked-tableclothed and dark. The crowd there is young. Members under 35 pay $50 initiation and yearly dues; over 35, the tab jumps to $100. II Mio, in Delmonico's, makes no concessions to youth; the figure is $100 for everybody over 21. II Mio, which calls itself a discoteca, takes fewer chances of slipped disques; the music is almost possible to talk to-a situation that disgusts a gentleman called Killer...
Killer Joe should know. A lithe, electric homunculus, he is Diskville's No. 1 dancing master, a hierophant of the subtle shades of difference between the Chicken and the Bird, the Surf and the Fish and the Swim, who has welcomed many a Big Name (Ballerina Margot Fonteyn, Hoofer Ray Bolger, Sybil Burton) to his unpretentious walk-up studio in Manhattan and makes about 30 trips a year to cities around the country to show dancing teachers how it's done...
Riding a board through the surf is a little like going on hashish. The addicts-and there are 18,000 of them in the U.S.-have their own fashions in everything from haircuts (long, but not too long) to swimsuits (cotton, a size too small).

They listen to apostles, who preach: "When the surf is good, you've got to go and get it. Work is secondary. Once...
Warming Up on Snow. The man who made his reputation in Makaha's big surf last week was Joseph ("Joey") Cabell, 25, a restaurant owner from Newport Beach, Calif., who summers in Hawaii. While 1,000 spectators watched from the beach, Cabell outclassed 349 contestants from as far away as Australia and Peru to win the International Surfing Championships. A trim six-footer (most top surfers are short) who has been at it since he was seven, Cabell keeps in shape during the winter by skiing on snow. The two, he says, are a lot alike...
...extra little button-on aprons and tops of the same material. But the pace setters will be more likely to show up in the strapless, wrapped-towel look-the suit that seems about to fall off any minute, but is so cleverly architected within as to be all but surf-proof. In materials, the newest notions seem to be the least aquatic: white kid, velvet, wool and suede...
