...nearly 65 hours, an artificial heart beat within Haskell Karp's chest. Then, 30 hours after the 8-oz. plastic device was replaced by the heart of a 40-year-old woman, Karp died last week in Houston's St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital, succumbing to pneumonia and kidney failure. By becoming the first human recipient of a completely artificial heart, Karp had briefly raised all sorts of expectations the world over. His death immediately touched off an angry controversy over the wisdom of trying out the device without further experimentation. It also brought into the open...
Centuries shuttled back and forth last week on NBC. Italian truck drivers be came Roman legionnaires; butchers were metamorphosed Into gladiators (one burly swordsman was nearly reduced to tears When he got a scratched ear); a woman switched from modern bourgeois matron to sadistic Messalina. These time-machine gambols took place on Fellini: A Director's Notebook, one program in the NBC series called "Experiment in Television" that had managed to escape from the usual Sunday-afternoon intellectual ghetto to prime time...

The fact that women's pants are a fact of life (45 million pairs will be sold in the U.S. this year) is a source of solid comfort to fabric manufacturers. It takes three yards...
...women who wear pants should take a cue from Ogden Nash. Designer Norman Norell says: "Every time I ship a box of pants to the stores, I worry about who is going to wear them." In Norell's trousers, which are cut straight from the hip, any woman who is not reed-thin is apt to look like a walking example of cluster zoning. A well-curved curple is absolutely essential, too, for the Yves St. Laurent pants suits that are the cat's pajamas at the moment. Although some of St. Laurent's designs are splendidly...
