...BLOND, long haired actress named Blythe Danner took hold of one of the six or seven microphones positioned around the stage, and recited a childhood reminiscence poem of Yevtushenko's called "Secret Mysteries." A piano tripping over the light fantastic backed her up with notes to catch the images of snow (falling) and balloons (bewitched) in an effectively sentimental presentation of music and poetry...

...Like Jean-Claude Killy, the Gallic glamour boy of the 1968 games, the dashingly handsome Schenk won three gold medals and the unofficial beefcake award. Crowds of more than 40,000 packed the Mako-manai Speed-Skating Rink to see the big (6 ft. 3 in.. 200 Ibs.), blond and blue-eyed Schenk easily overpower his competition at 1.500 and 5,000 meters with his powerfully rhythmic strides. Then, while Dutch fans clopped their wooden shoes and shouted "Heya! Heya! Ard Schenk!" he covered the 10,000-meter marathon in 15 min., 1.35 sec., an astonishing 22 seconds better...

Their mood is carefree, nevertheless, and is echoed by that of their hosts, the blond ice-maiden Micol (Dominique Sanda), and her sickly brother Alberto (Helmut Berger). Among their guests are Giorgio (Lino Capolicchio), a childhood friend, and Malnate (Fabio Testi), a gentile visitor from Milan. Wrinkling her nose at Malnate's Fascist predilection for the workers of Ferrara, Micol returns his appraising once-over with...

...Blond, tan, dimpled and movie-star handsome, Griese, going to work in one of his Sears, Roebuck suits (he does promotion for the company), looks like a beachboy turned junior executive. For him, in fact, preparing for a game is "like a businessman going to a meeting. I have a 9-to-5 job like everyone else," he says. Not quite. When he goes home at night, he often lugs along reels of game film and then spends long hours in his den taking notes by the flickering light. His diligence has paid off in a kind of built...

Robbie was kidding but Shula was not. On the first day of practice, the jut-jawed coach startled everyone by chewing out Quarterback Bob Griese, the dimpled blond star of the team. Accustomed to the easygoing ways of former Coach George Wilson, the players were dumbfounded when Shula announced that there would be four practice sessions a day, beginning before breakfast and lasting until nightfall.
