Original Toronto Star caption: A stay in Carcassonne; the medieval fortress in southern France; is like a visit to mythical Camelot - but with modern conveniences. You can stay in a replica of a bishop's palace; a hotel or a youth hostel within its walls and in the evening or morning meet the ghosts of older; bloodier days. This couple is walking between the inner walls; built by the Visgoths in the 6th century; and the huge outer ramparts built by Louis IX.

Richard Stuart. Yo-yo syndrome. Assume that like most of us these days you're struggling to stick to the sensible diet. Still you can't seem to resist snacking on a hot dog smothered with onions, relish and mustard at a baseball game or a rock conert. How do you break your automatic habit pattern? That question was put to Dr. Richard B. Stuart, psychological director of the 600,000 members of Weight Watchers International. He was in Toronto recently to promote his new Book of the Month Club bestseller, Act Thin, Stay Thin (George J. McLeod, $11.50).
