...playroom if it's a good movie, on the brick wall of the living room if it's bad." She cares little for haute couture. Dory Previn charitably describes Julie's wardrobe as "old-fashioned"; the less charitable call it "frumpish."

South of the Potomac in Smithfield, Va., Sybil and Doyle Northrup would rather stick with Julia Child. "Last week I went down to our pond and caught two bluegills," says Sybil.

...Married. Sybil Burton, 36, Richard's silvery-haired ex, currently hostess à-go-go of Arthur, Manhattan discothèque; and Jordan Christopher (nè Zankoff), 24, rag-mopped leader of the Wild Ones, the club's rock-along band; both for the second time; in Manhattan.
