The crowd went wild...
...spectators at a Sunday-after noon boccie game. Anthony (Fat Tony) Salerno, 75, the reputed head of the Genovese crime family, sits aloof and alone, his left eye red and swollen from surgery.

Jimmy Carter seemed refreshingly down-home in his blue jeans and cardigan until inflation rocketed and the Ayatullah Khomeini seized Iran and the hostages; then he looked to many like a peanut farmer in over his head.
