Died. Edmond Ansley, 84, the 50-in. midget who was the model for the cartoon character Buster Brown in 1 9 1 0 and who for the next 27 years traveled across the U.S. with a blond wig, knickers and a Boston terrier named Tige to promote the children's footwear of the Brown Shoe Co.; of an apparent heart attack; in Gainesville, Texas...
...January" is a blond relaxing in the buff in a library. "April" is a slightly paunchy brunet at the seashore, bare backside to the camera and eye to a yard-long telescope. "November" is a handsome, dark-haired thing reclining across a rumpled bed.

But 33-year-old Bobby is more golden than he ever was-the new World Hockey Association has just signed him to abandon Chicago and become a player-coach for the Winnipeg Jets for a staggering $2.75 million over the next ten years, including an immediate cash bonus of $1 million. The W.H.A., which calls the deal the fattest contract ever signed by a professional athlete, hopes...
