...before the film whirs to a muddled flat-broke finish, Actress Moreau forcefully demonstrates the verve, style and flamboyant femaleness that make her the envy of European sex symbols much greener in years and cooler in blood. Her wicked, winning presence has saved many a bad movie from utter oblivion, and at 36 she knows how to turn Bay of the Angels into a one-woman show. Puffy, painted, clacking along on spike heels, bouncy blonde curls screaming Miami bleach, she seems to have been blackjacked by destiny in a thousand side-street hotels. If she loses her train fare...
...People's Republic of the Congo."I did what I could to preserve African honor," he said in a radio message to the continent's nationalist leaders, "and you have left me alone beneath the bombardments of the Americans and Belgians. In the name of Lumumba, I utter a last appeal." But not even the invocation of the martyred leftist was likely to help. For last week the whole rebel cause was collapsing.

"It has failed to halt the march of Communism and the testing of nuclear weapons and the spread of nuclear power through the Communist world. This policy, if 1 may call it that, has instead helped the Communist world through a time of trouble and allowed it to emerge as a greater threat than ever to the freedom...
...beaten Russia in their private battle for supremacy in the Games (see box). But the memories would stay -of Bob Schul sprinting across the finish line in the 5,000-meter run, the first American ever to win the race, soaked with rain, plastered with mud, a look of utter rapture on his upturned face. Of Russia's Elvira Ozolina, crushed by her defeat in the women's javelin, rushing wildly into a hairdresser's to have her head shaved in shame. Of South Korea's defiant Dong Kih Choh, disqualified in his flyweight boxing preliminary...
