...Anne Worley, 30, a farmer's daughter from Lowell, Ind., is a former cover girl-on the back of Mad magazine. She served as a standby for Carol Channing in Hello, Dolly! in 1964, became a favorite on the talk-show circuit with her mugging antics and raucous, snorting laugh.

...spectacle of two near-naked, 300-lb. behemoths locked in a sweaty embrace, tugging mightily at each other's loincloths and grunting like rhinoceri, is about as exciting as a traffic jam. That makes it all the more astonishing that the two brightest stars currently on the sumo circuit are 1) a Eurasian and 2) an American ex-football tackle from Hawaii...
