In 1960 he won his first (of three) U.S. Auto Club championships; a year later...
...feet, edged her, barefoot, off the platform. While she protested: "It's a scandal. I'll call the police," they hurriedly shoehorned the size3 golden slippers on the feet of a 28-year-old stenographer named Huguette Granet. Huguette's prize: a pair of shoes with four-in.-high heels, in a larger size, her proper fit. For Madame Albane de Siva, the clock had struck midnight...
