Mary Pinkney ("Pinky") MacArthur should have worn stars herself. Few mothers have fought harder for their sons than she fought for Douglas, or dominated them so completely. When he was about to take his exams for West Point, she gave him a pep talk that he never forgot: "You must believe in yourself, my son, or no one else will believe in you." Naturally, he passed and, just as naturally, his mother moved to Craney's Hotel near his dormitory, where for four years she could see the lamp in her son's window and tell whether...

At no other point is he given anything even remotely funny to say or do. It is hard to remember when a talented comic...
