...there in pursuit of the crystal-white, palm-fringed beaches, sparkling blue water, and hot Caribbean sun. Tourists marvel at the dramatic color of the Haitian landscape, its coconut, papaya, and mango trees, its high jagged mountains, and its sharp cliffs and quiet coves. They drink Haitian rum, watch the colorful folklore shows, and swing at night to the fast rhythms of the Haitian music. And most take a curious look at the native culture and its black primitivism...
...when Johnson flew out of Washington, his destination unrevealed until shortly before he boarded Air Force One. The first stop was Houston, where the President toured the Manned Spacecraft Center. Next, he dropped in at Beaumont, Texas, for a fund-raising dinner, then on to Marietta, Ga., to watch Lockheed Aircraft roll out the world's largest aircraft, the C-5A Galaxy flying freighter (wing span: 223 ft., height: 65 ft.), which can lift 21 times more cargo than any current U.S. air transport.

...Ergo is not much of a pleasure to listen to, the staging makes it a delight to watch. The actors move swiftly and smoothly on, off, up, down and around the ingenious three-story set of Designer Ming Cho Lee.

Twelvetrees has his own problem; he surreptitiously takes photographs of himself making love to girlfriend Samantha Quentin (Maeve Kinkead). And Blaine is afraid to approach Anastasia. He keeps watch from a phone booth near her apartment, smoking cigarettes and counting the gangbusters who pass in and out of Eden's Gates. Finally he pockets his dime and acts. Hunter carefully draws that last scene to a beautiful and appropriate conclusion, a full circle dead end. Then he inexplicably attacks...
...laughing now. Quality? In the last 34 games between East and West, the East has won 17, the West has won 13, and four have ended in ties. Finances? Four weeks ago in Pittsburgh, 12,563 fans turned out to watch the fledgling Penguins tie the old Toronto Maple Leafs 3-3-although the seating capacity at Civic Arena is only 12,507. The Philadelphia Flyers have been averaging 9,000 paid admissions per game; General Manager Bud Poile beams happily: "This game has really arrived in Philadelphia. The fans have started to boo us and the refs...
