...much of the show is shot in the huge tanks of the world's biggest aquarium. California's Marineland of the Pacific at Palos Verdes. Even in the tanks, filming Sea Hunt is risky. Bubbles, Marineland's 1,800-lb. pilot whale cow, once pinned astonished Chief Cameraman Lamar (The Old Man and the Sea) Boren against a tank window out of crushing affection. Actor Bridges, a muscular, sandy-haired man of 45, yearns to ride Bubbles, but Tors vetoes the idea: "All Bubbles has to do is to flip her tail and I lose my leading...
What is India? By the judgment of the Indians themselves-from Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru down to an unemployed factory manager in Gwalior-it is an empty tomb, a looted dustbin, the shadow under the lamp; it is four parts filth and one part hypocrisy, a cow-dung country inhabited by people with a cow-dung mentality.

Billy Graham set out this week to narrow the gap between the Golden and the pearly gates.

In his frustration, Duke undertook to prove to Infielder Don Zimmer that at least he could heave a ball out of the park. In a pregame contest, he threw a ball up to the 76th row of the 79-row stands before something snapped in his elbow. The team doctor prescribed rest and heat; Manager Walter Alston angrily ordered another kind...
Right on the Nose. To the Dodger team, the echoing, concrete-enclosed cow pasture is just another place to play. To the Dodger president, it is the brightest achievement of a vagrant, varicolored career. For Walter O'Malley, the tortuous trail to California began in The Bronx, where he was born on Oct. 9, 1903. He was the only son of Manhattan Politico Edwin J. O'Malley, a man who could trace his ancestry back to County Mayo, and Alma Feltner O'Malley, a woman whose family background was stolidly German.
