The Los Angeles Kings are drawing 7,600 paving customers per game, and the only expansion club that is experiencing any real financial woe is the Oakland Seals. The Seals discovered the cure for that last week, when those 12,025 fans turned out to welcome Bobby...
...locale was a nudist camp that had just closed its season, so the participants had privacy in 400 acres complete with cabanas and a Jacuzzi whirlpool bath big enough to hold all of them at once. Heated to 102°, the bath proved to be important therapeutically. As newly arrived members met, fully clothed, they were asked to discuss any anxieties or fantasies that they had about their imminent nudity.
