...biggest of the countless question marks surrounding the finale is the health of Harvard wonderboy Bobby Hackett, who came down with a fever Thursday night and lost his 200 duel with Saltzman last night. Hackett should win the evening's opening race, the 1650 yd. freestyle, handily despite his illness...

This program seemed somehow even more offensive than The $1.98 Beauty Show because it came from a network with a history of excellence and pretensions of continued quality.

The coins, with profiles of Louis Armstrong and Mark Twain, will not be legal tender in the U.S., and will presumably be no easier to swap for real money than the Krugerrand...
