Every January the nation's religion reporters and other self-anointed authorities construct lists of the "Most important religion stories" of the year: conflicts over sexual ethics, the religious resurgence in Eastern Europe, the furor over the Dead Sea Scrolls, the latest encyclicals from the Pope. Big deal.

With the 1992 Presidential race in ferment once more, both parties began intensive bids for former supporters of Ross Perot yesterday, and a new New York Times/CBS News Poll showed the Democratic nominee, Bill Clinton, as the main beneficiary of the independent candidate's sudden withdrawal. The survey, taken Thursday evening as the Democratic National Convention was ending, and yesterday as the delegates began leaving town, showed Mr. Clinton gaining the biggest post-convention "bounce" in the 50 years such measurements have been taken. He now leads President Bush among registered voters by 55 percent to 31 percent, with 13 percent undecided.

Which of the barrage of images fired off at the Democratic convention will turn out to have hit home? Will it be the old-fashioned rouser of a nominating speech by Gov. Mario L. Cuomo or the acceptance speech by Bill Clinton or the painfully unprecedented appearance by two people with AIDS? Will it be the proud display of female candidates or the contrasting styles of the Rev. Jesse Jackson, the event's foremost loser, and the party chairman, Ronald H. Brown, a big winner? Or will it be entertaining passages like those of the candidate and his family strolling through the gents' furnishings department of Macy's, beneath "Sale" signs and amid stern looking men whose earplugs indicated they were not just floorwalkers worried about Chelsea doing some shoplifting?

I have been asked by this paper to pay homage to Russell Baker, the Grand Old Man of American Humor Columnists. Yesterday was the 30th anniversary of his first column, which brought so much joy and happiness to millions of readers. Every humor writer in America can remember exactly what he or she was doing the moment they met Russ Baker. I was 10 years old and watching the Hindenburg zeppelin land in New Jersey. I noticed off to one side a tall lanky man chewing on a piece of straw. I recognized him immediately because he was wearing his familiar trademark, a black patch over his left eye. I went up to him and blurted out: "Mr. Baker, I hope to follow in your footsteps when I grow up. To what do you attribute your success as a humorist?" He tousled my hair and grinned, "I never met a man I didn't like."

The Russian Parliament voted today to increase the state budget deficit by 100 billion rubles, a move that is likely to further complicate the Government's efforts to bring the economy under control. Parliament's increasingly combative approach was also asserted in an effort to take over Izvestia, the popular and respected daily, which established its independence last August.

Thousand Trails Inc. and an affiliate, the National American Corporation, said that they would close 9 campgrounds and operate 16 others on a seasonal basis only. The cutbacks are part of new marketing strategies adopted by the companies' management following a restructuring of Thousand Trails' debt in May. The closings and the switch to seasonal operations at some sites were based on occupancy at the campgrounds. The nine resorts represent about 4 percent of the companies' total occupancies last year and about 1 percent of their total memberships. The changes take effect Sept. 30.

Cincinnati Bell Inc. said second-quarter results improved from a year earlier, when it posted a net loss of $7.9 million after a charge of $16 million. Net income for the latest quarter was $11.4 million, or 16 cents a share, compared with the deficit a year earlier. Without the charge, net income would have been $8 million, or 11 cents a share. Revenue rose to $275.4 million from $256.3 million. In the second quarter of 1991, Cincinnati Bell took a one-time charge of $16 million, or 26 cents a share, for costs associated with developing the NS90 software package at its CBIS information management subsidiary and for an investment in the AT&E Corporation, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
