...portrayed by Actor O'Brian, 31, onetime Marine drill instructor, Wyatt Earp now rides herd on the youngsters, makes them eat their cereal (Cheerios) and brush their teeth (with Gleem). His impeccable dress-frock coat, striped pants, silk vest, black sombrero-is a good example for the junior blue-jeans set ("Mothers love me").

But in another fight last week at Aranjuez, near Madrid, more sober-minded aficionados seemed less happy about Ava and the toreador. Ava was dazzling as ever in a yellow frock, but Cesar was peaked and off his form; he fought only a fair fight and won neither ear nor tail for his lady...
