...shocked to find local youths lounging on the beach and playing tennis instead of shooting at the old peach basket. U.C.L.A. boosters were equally bemused to discover that their Hoosier hotshot did not take to the cocktails-and-canapes circuit. His speed was a deviled-egg sandwich and a dish of custard at Hollis Johnson's Fountain and Grill, an eatery that he still frequently attends.

Korin had an almost miraculous sense of materials; witness his writing box, with a design of irises, pool and bridge. The iris leaves and stems are gold lacquer, the flowers mother-of-pearl inlay, the bridge columns are rendered...
...this year's game against Princeton. The night before we were at training table at the Hanover Inn, everyone was having vanilla ice cream sundies, you know the kind they scoop not the bricks you get in the dining hall but as a joke they brought me a dish full of white napkins. Everyone laughed but I'm pretty far-sighted and I didn't notice what was wrong. Yea I started laughing too. I don't know why. I suppose cause everyone else was. I dug into the dessert--I thought it was pretty bland kind of mealy-like...
