...catch-all label for the energetic and varied kind of music that has emerged in recent months from some of the young American bands. The Ramones stick close to basic rock 'n' roll, but they get better all the time. Last week their latest single Sheena is a Punk Rocker made the Billboard Hot 100 chart-the first New Wave song to achieve that eminence...
...traumatic, with an adolescent hoodlum at her school. She barrages Catherine with demands, seeks protection against the outside world (through a pure vegetarian diet, through hypochondriac fantasies about death). Catherine "drinks a little" to ease the tension and chews raw hamburger, when Anna isn't looking. Ceil, "over-dressed Sheena of the blackboard jungle," wants Anna put away in a mental institution, though she's vulnerable (like all the characters in the play) since she stole the man Catherine wanted to marry and she made no sacrifices, as Catherine and Anna did, to take care of their now dead mother...
...Rock. Wonder Woman. The Plastic Sheena. Whatever unladylike sobriquets attach to Raquel, there is no denying her box-office attraction.

First off, Sheena the camel smashed one set in rehearsal, put her foot through another, had to be dropped from the cast. That left the donkeys, etc. Then the censors in the Lord Chamberlain's office warned against indecencies of dance and dress. The naked are "more and more clothed," and Director Hall...
...remembers it. Pa Fonda used to stomp around the property in sideburns or a beard, achinnin' with the other farmers-John Ford, Jimmy Stewart. John Wayne and so on. All the while, the kids was ferever play-actin', pretendin' they was Buck the Buffalo Herder, or Sheena. Queen of the Jungle. "Sometimes we did improvisations with our governesses.'' recalls young Peter Fonda. "We lived pretty much the same life my father lived on the screen,'' says Jane. ''It was all a big act." The act is bigger than ever. Jane...
