Unlike the pubescent teen-agers who once doted on Elvis and Frank Sinatra, the Jones fans are primarily well-coiffed young matrons. Jones has programmed his entire career style around his appeal to the mature woman, starting with the neat trim that edges his thick, curly head of hair, and continuing with his tuxedo and matching vest. "You can sing to the kids in a pair of denims, long hair and a sweatshirt," he says, "but not to the adults." ABC has had no trouble at all selling commercial spots to makers of sewing machines, bras, eye makeup and suntan...
...Calcutta! not only offers the most nudity but the handsomest nudes on the New York stage, trim-muscled men and lovely girls. Why does it fail to stimulate eroticism? The answer is that no member of a theater audience is unaware of the rest of the audience, and this communal group consciousness inhibits erotic response. If it gets a minus on eroticism, Oh!

...Miss Haber was trim enough to show her Donald Brooks suit off to best advantage, but her blue eyes had long since lost their little-girl luminosity; it was almost as if they had already seen so much they had turned to marble.

The Costleys not long ago added a porch, patio and basketball court to their ten-room, $46,000 house, at a cost of $4,200, or $1,200 more than they would have paid in 1967. "But I still...
...base. That book was the prototype of Fielding's Guide to Europe?chatty, chuckly, problem-solving, a little patronizing: ("Each regiment has its own barbershop, staffed by civilians. It's good and it's cheap. Don't think that you look like a monkey after your first 'G.I.' trim. Short hair is an Army custom.") Continuing to do magazine articles from Fort Bragg, Fielding met a Manhattan literary agent named Nancy Parker. He became her client?and two months later her husband...
