...Town: "The guy just never heard of exhaustion." But he has heard about charm, and he can crack the whip without stinging the ego. When he teamed up with Jackie Gleason to film Gigot in 1961, the trade waited expectantly for the Great One to unload his celebrated wrath on the demanding director. Instead, Kelly had Gleason puffing up and down a flight of stairs like a trained St. Bernard and Jackie begrudgingly tacked a reminder on his dressing-room door: GENE KELLY is RIGHT...

In the Assembly elections two weeks ago, the D.R.P. won 130 of the Assembly's 175 seats; that was a gain of 20-far more than expected. The minority, more traditionalist New Democratic Party (N.D.P.) accused the winners of stuffing ballot boxes, doctoring tally sheets and bribing voters and vote counters alike in at least 20 of the country's 131 constituencies.
