...room before each performance. On the day of the finals, he arose from a practice session and in his excitement cracked his head on a ledge protruding from a wall and collapsed against the Steinway. Revived, he refused a bandage for the one-inch gash in his forehead and, bloody but unbowed, trudged off to play with a driving intensity and the pyrotechnical flair of a young Horowitz...

...waves breaking on beaches, whether they are Senegalese or Tahitian, becomes tiresome. Like most amateur filmmakers, Brown doesn't know where to end The Endless Summer; he has to show just one more well-known surfing haunt and one more surfer bleeding from an ugly gash on the forehead.

Color Test. The VA team went to work last Dec. 7. A sweeping cut through the scalp from behind the left ear to the crown, and then another to the forehead, exposed the skull. Next the surgeons sawed through the bone and lifted a big flap to expose the brain. Then, wielding an electric cautery, they spent one hour and 50 minutes cutting away the diseased hemisphere-from the neocortex, the control center for man's most civilized mental processes, down to the ancient part of the brain, where reflexive and instinctual functions are mediated. The surgeons put nothing...
