...good shot at winning the Triple Crown (leading the league in hitting, homers and runs-batted-in). Last week Lynn was first in hitting with a .347 average, while Rice was second at .335.

In real life, however, the forbidding turrets and gables guard one of the oldest, ritziest and most famous apartment buildings in Manhattan. It is the Dakota, behind whose 2-ft. -thick brick walls live such celebrities as Lauren Bacall, Roberta Flack, and John Lennon and Yoko Ono, who own some 28 rooms throughout the Dakota and who once held a séance to commune with departed tenants. Other famous occupants have included Leonard Bernstein, Judy Holliday and Boris Karloff, plus several purported house ghosts...
