Comics Code Authority a year ago. Who persists in
referring to DC Comlcs as "AOL, for AOL Time
Warner, its parent company, for the sole reason, he
says, grinning, that DC Comics does not like it.
After he broke with the Code, the comles went to
v-neck tee
shops with "Look, kids, no Codel" on the cover.
This is not to say Mr. Jemas, 44, cannot be
serlous. He's in the oftice at 6:45 so he can get out

Hoops Tune Won't Jump
Enjoy the theme for those NBC
Natlonal Basketball Association
games while it is still possible. JoHN
TESH, who wrote it,
does not expect it to
go along when the
N.B.A. Jumps to ABC
and ESPNnext sea-
son. He says ESPN
has already told him
that it plans to find a new theme.
"My point is, if you purchased En-
tertainment Tonight, would you
change the theme?" hesaid. ABC
and ESPN, along with AOL Time
Warner's TNT unit, outbid NBC for
the rights to six years of the N.B.A. In
a $4.6 billion deal,
Mr. Tesh, the musician and former
"Entertainment Tonight" host, does
not want the tune to go unheard for
long. "We are in talks with a few
folks about licensing it lor other
use," he said. "College basketball is
also an option." A spokesman for
ESPN did not return a call for com-
ment.

your wife?
A moment's silence, then the diplo-
matic answer: "It's about even."
Does that mean both are terrific,
or both are dreadful?
"Oh, we're both so easy," Mr.
Schlossberg said.
Then he grinned.
"You know, she just wrote the in-
troduction."
It wasn't necessary for him to
identify the "she." He wasreferring
to his wife, cARoLINE KENNEDY, the
guest of honor at the
party that was swirl-
ing around Mr.
Schlossberg on the
second floor of Tiffa-
ny & Company on
Monday. She has just
updated her father's Pulitzer Prize-
winning book under the title "Pro-
files in Courage for Our Time."
So how long did she work on it?
*We've been talking about it for a

,* she said. "My brother
John and I wanted to do it."
