...city's biggest, and least accessible, club, located on the edge of South Boston, just over the channel from South Station. Though many bands that would play there go to the Cape in the summer, The Channel still offers some big name bands close-up. Popular reggae band Steel Pulse plays there Tuesday, New York poet-punk-heroin addict Jim Carroll on Thursday, Ministry on June 30, poppy ska band Bad Manners July 14, and the inevitable milking of the success of rock parody. This is Spinal Tap. The band will-play. The Channel July 7, and watching the audience...

Much East-West trade involves convoluted deals: Western firms sell items like steel or chemicals to Communist state trading organizations in exchange for such items as tobacco, vodka, timber, trolleys and forklift trucks. The Western company then often resells the Eastern product through a middleman for cash. In one of the biggest of these accords, Occidental Petroleum and the Soviet Union have a 20-year, $20 billion agreement that calls, in part, for the annual exchange of 1 million tons of American superphosphoric acid fertilizer for 4 million tons of Soviet ammonia, urea and potash...
...accusations that he looks down his nose at people. He is a multimillionaire grandson of one of the founding brothers of the Johnson & Johnson health products firm. He lives in distinctly unbohemian comfort. With his wife and two children he will next year move behind the kidnaper-proof steel-lined walls of a new Princeton, N.J., mansion. As a young man he tried a stint as a Johnson & Johnson executive, but it did not work out. "I was fired," he says...
