...heroic," says Ronald G. Talney of the Multnomah County, Ore., sheriff's department. But policewomen might avoid such assaults simply because "it is cowardly to attack a woman, even though she is a police officer."

More than a mere maker of movies, he has resolved to be a director-cum- personality and so has entered the front line of media in-fighting. At its most harmless this includes the kind of toothless satire of such cultural balloons as The Sensuous Woman and Love Story.

Most brought gifts from Iraq. Yugoslav health officials suspect that some also brought back variola major, the most virulent form of smallpox. Two weeks after their homecoming -variola's incubation period-several of the travelers came down with smallpox, triggering an epidemic that has infected 155 and killed at least 28 in just a month. Only now is the outbreak being brought under control...
