Slick halfback Emmanuel Boye is limping badly from a charley horse suffered Wednesday. Halfback Tony Davies and right outside Ebenezer Klufio will start, but both will be slowed by the same problem. On the left wing Mike Kramer is nursing a painful ankle injury which makes him an uncertain starter...
...Yankees are undoubtedly the strongest-hitting Yankee team since 1939 -when Joe DiMaggio, Charley Keller, Bill Dickey & Co. lowered the boom on hapless Cincinnati in the World Series, won in four straight games. Only three players hit over .300-Elston Howard (.353), Mickey Mantle (.317) and Johnny Blanchard (.305)-but Roger Maris slammed a record 61 home runs, Mantle hit 54, and no fewer than six Yankees hit 20 or more.

...sort of weather to attract voters-and colorless Candidate Levitt's chances rested on a small turnout, in which his organization support might be decisive. More than 743,000 voters, a record for a Democratic primary in New York City, swarmed to the polls.

Written more than ten years ago when Durrell had only seen two plays ("And one of them was Charley's Aunt"), Sappho probably belongs on the bookshelf rather than the stage. But as a first play, it contains ample evidence that Novelist Durrell could become a major English dramatist, following his recently stated ambition to "explore the vein" of modern verse drama opened by T. S. Eliot, W. H. Auden and Christopher Fry, but "in terms of drama not morality plays...
...milk money, the FTC took a line that could put a painful crimp in the $500 million-a-year business of testimonial advertising. Does Arthur Godfrey really use Sucaryl? Does Comedian Tom Poston actually sip Heublein martinis? Is it a fact that New York Giants' Quarterback Charley Conerly deodorizes himself with Trig? If the FTC vigorously enforces its policy, an eager world may yet learn the answers to all these questions and more...
