...abducted youth did not seem to fit the mold of either his father or his fiery grandfather and namesake "Mr. Sam" (who shrewdly built the family fortune but sometimes hurled dishes when angry). Young Sam has seemed a bit brash and arrogant to outsiders, but friends at Williams found him "relaxed" about his wealth and "even-tempered." No jet-setter, he was interested primarily in sport. Strong and wiry (6 ft. 3 in., 185 Ibs.), he had played tennis and basketball at Williams and possessed an encyclopedic mind for sport trivia. He had been looking forward to starting work...
