Married. Maria Schell, 40, Viennese movie star; and Veit Relin (real name: Franz Pichler), 40, avant-garde theater director and father of her three-monthold daughter; both for the second time; in Reitmehring, Germany...
...whole package-which included 36 items already negotiated, plus the possibility of some new salary minimums and syndication rights for reporters-had few other consolations for the Guild, still fewer for the Times.

That year, after raising their price to a dime, the three afternoon dailies collectively lost a 333,000 paid readership -only 46,000 of which has come back. After the city's 114-day newspaper strike last winter, another 500,000 buyers disappeared for good. If prophecies about the Mirror prove true, the total loss will soar past...
