Cowan spent his summer vacations running around the West Coast, meeting Elvis Presley, Donna Reed and eating dinner with Desi Arnaz at the Brown Derby. (I'll bet he didn't even order the cobb salad.) "Probably none of this should have impressed me," Cowan says. But it has. Although the book is no defense of his now-dead parents, it is tinged with their memories. If anything comes out of all this, its that Cowan doesn't really care about the structure of the network system. He'd rather gossip in gory detail about the promotional practices...

...Marie-Saint's paragon of prudery rankles a bit, sugary in a few embarrassing moments. Yet Elie Kazan's otherwise slick direction salvages the plot, wisely allowing Brando to showcase his still developing talents and heart-melting looks.

...fans grew with it. Long one of the game's fiercest competitors, Rose has been booed with equal ferocity for his playing style. Never a graceful player, he made himself indispensable with the kind of hustle Enos Slaughter personified and the aggressive disregard for physical safety of Ty Cobb. Running like a blocking back, Rose has broken up more double plays?and infielder's pride?than any other man playing baseball today. During the 1970 All-Star game, a bone-crunching collision at home plate left Cleveland Catcher Ray Fosse sitting stunned in the dust and television viewers aghast...
