...Super Bowl primaries, put Carter ahead of Ford by a staggering 52%-37% and in front of Reagan by an even greater 55%-32%. The latest Gallup pairing, taken in late May, had a similar result: Carter over Ford, 52%-40%, and trouncing Reagan 55%-37%. An earlier Harris survey also showed Carter beating Ford by smaller margins than he would top Reagan. Says California Pollster Mervin Field: "I'm hard-pressed to rate Carter worse than even in any of the 50 states, and he is clearly the favorite in 25 to 30. It's difficult...

From India to Japan, the film studios of Asia churn out more than 1,200 pictures a year, the work of moguls like Hong Kong's Run Run Shaw (see box) and one-shot entrepreneurs and ephemeral actors.

This percentage would seem certain to shrink as passions cool following...
...Rand scientists based their conclusion on an 18-month study of people admitted to N.I.A.A.A. treatment centers across the country. First they conducted a survey of patients at 45 centers six months after they had begun treatment. Then they went back to eight of the centers to interview in depth 1,340 patients 18 months after their initial treatment. In the latter group, which consisted of those who had been downing more than nine times the alcoholic consumption of the average drinker, more than half were unemployed and separated or divorced. After a year and a half, about...
