...none. Johnny Bench is in Pete Rose's arms, and the ball is high above shallow center. Everyone knows this now. No one is covering third base, but Yasztremski is invisibly flying to the dugout and the dark tunnel behind it to the locker room. The ball descends. Cesar Geronimo extends his arm and it is swallowed up.

...star. At 17 she was made one of the youngest members in France's oldest acting ensemble, the Comédie Française. In her first season, she played Agnes in The School for Wives. When Jean-Loup Dabadie, one of France's leading screenwriters (Cesar and Rosalie) saw her in 1973, he wrote a comedy of the generation gap, La Gifle (A Slap in the Face) for her. When it opened last fall in Paris, Isabelle as a teen-age scamp stole the show from Co-Stars Annie Girardot and Lino Ventura...
