Since he was responsible for the bulk of the reporting on Detroit Pitcher Denny McLain, this week's cover subject, Kane had ample opportunity to test his theory. It proved to be unfounded. Kane's big problem was not belligerence; it was entirely a matter of timing. McLain kept moving so fast that Kane hardly had a chance to ask all the necessary questions. Kane found himself taking notes while chatting at the water fountain in the Tiger dugout, while chasing his man through hotel lobbies, in between sessions at a television studio and on the warm...
...winning ways of McLain and his teammates were no less pleasant for Cover Writer Charles Parmiter and Senior Editor George Daniels. Sport figures have a way of stumbling embarrassingly just as a big story is going to press. Denny McLain and the Tigers never gave the TIME Sport staff a moment's worry...

In addition, a consortium of 13 Japanese companies, including such big trading firms as Mitsui and Mitsubishi, will be allowed to sell $30 million worth of consumer goods to Russian settlers in Siberia.

Not surprisingly, the result is less than successful. Henry Worthington is like most Cozzens heroes. Society judges him a winner, but on the basis of his own secretly harbored prima facie evidence he wonders if he just might not be a loser after all. A successful management consultant of "sixty odd," Worthington decides with metaphorical directness to examine the management -and meaning-of his own life. His method, however, is indirect...
