...three more hit disks whose titles faithfully reflected his brightening fortunes: I Wanna Be Around, The Good Life, This Is All I Ask. Today, at 37, Tony boasts bigger record sales than Frankie, Perry, Eddie, or any other old standby, and can confidently look forward to a real Bing Crosby future...
Bang, said Rudolf Bing, and for the first time in the 81-year history of Manhattan's Metropolitan Opera House the only ones standing were the ushers. The Met general manager, 62, blames standees for pepping up applause with "uncontrolled shouting, screaming and crazy yelling," and says: "I will not have a Beatle-type performance going on." Moreover, they don't know how to dress. "I don't want them to come in white tie or in black tie. But I do want them to come in a tie." Still, the Met without standees is like Yankee...

...Tony Lema, 29: the $40,500 Bing Crosby National, by three strokes, at Pebble Beach, Calif. Drenching rain and gale-force winds played havoc with scores. Arnold Palmer took a 9 on a par-3 hole. Bob Rosburg 6-putted on one hole, and Bob Harrison scored an even 100 for the last 18. "My sense of humor saved me," said "Champagne Tony," who collected $5,800 and promptly threw a bubble-water party for the press...
