...life was probably beyond dreams he might have entertained as a boy in his native Chihuahua, where his parents and their ten children earned a bare subsistence with a vegetable and fruit stand in the market. As any good script would have it, Primitivo, 23, along with his younger brother Alfredo, began a naturalization course at night at Kansas City's Westport High School, the first step to ward his cherished goal of becoming a U.S. citizen. If Primitivo Garcia had been like the U.S. citizens who were around Westport one cold night last month, he would be alive...
...news reports made us sound like fugitive lovers," laughed Amherst Sophomore David Eisenhower, 19, Ike's only grandson, commenting on the roundabout announcement of his engagement to Smith College Sophomore Julie Nixon, 19, Dick Nixon's younger daughter.

Today the studios are frequently packagers, providing money and facilities for small, independent production teams-which naturally insist upon artistic control. These film makers are not necessarily...
...only short story the Journal has run, "Dumaran," is the magazine's weakest piece. In this story of a young man who learns of his younger brother's death and flies across the country for his funeral, we are faced with superficial types--the drunken priest, the innocent young boy. Dumaran flips jabs at the Peace Corps, American Airlines, religion and a few others, but the satire fails because the characters are not believable...
