One designer, Frances Bi-coll, offered second-graded bikinis for $6 that if perfect might retail at I. Magnin for $25.

The opening Masterpiece production is a felicitous, six-week serialization of Jude the Obscure, which, except for the gloom-struck overview of Thomas Hardy, is a sort of high-class Peyton Place. The Lucy of public TV, Julia Child, is also back in a new 26-part series on French cuisine, "designed," she says, "as a refresher course for experienced cooks and as a jet-assist take-off for beginners...
