...Hough does. Absent is the visual oppressiveness of old six-story run-downs, crumbling brownstone block houses, and the vertical caskets of towering, post-war housing projects.

Time and again, Mao Tse-tung has dropped out of sight for extended periods, only to make a dramatic reappearance-swimming in the Yangtze River, standing atop the Gate of Heavenly Peace in Peking, greeting a visiting dignitary. Last week, after yet another tantalizing absence, Mao was back again, this time to welcome Ethiopia's Emperor Haile Selassie to Peking.

Short's first gate-building move and a good one-was to sign Ted Williams as the Senators' manager. But last fall, overriding Williams' objections, Short traded half of the team's infield and $80,000 to get Denny McLain, Detroit's bad-boy pitcher. McLain reciprocated by becoming this season's first 20-game loser...
