BRATTLE: The Bogey festival continues apace. The Maltese Falcon, the current offering, is one of the very best of all. Dashiell Hammett's story has become the vehicle for Bogart's now immortal Sam Spade and Sidney Green-street's now equally immortal Fat Man. Ward Bond and Alicia Cook (and, of course, Peter Lorre). Evenings...
Starts Wednesday: Casablanca, that film of films. Two generations it is now that have sat in wonder before the continuously magnificent performance of Bogey, Ingrid Bergman and Claude Rains.

Near tears and certain...
...Palmer stalked about the green, shaking his head, talking furiously to himself, while his playing partner, Charlie Coe, holed out. Finally Palmer took a putter, addressed his ball-and pushed it a full 12 ft. past the cup. A return putt was wide. Palmer finished with an incredible double-bogey six, slipped into a second-place tie (worth $12,000) with fast-closing Amateur Coe. New Masters Champion Player gulped his drink, embraced his wife, danced a delirious...
