Under the private school plan, all this would end abruptly-a critical loss of social services throughout Georgia. The private "system" would be strictly on its own, with only tuition grants for support. It could not possibly take over the public system's job.

Where would they find a summer substitute for Sanders? Worse yet, where will they find a substitute in the fall? By then, Felicia will probably be in Los Angeles with her son Jeff, 13, and her husband-accompanist, Irv Joseph. "Milton Berle wants to present me at the Crescendo," she says, and adds...
