...European Grand Prix with a record average 94.14 m.p.h. over the twisting 80-lap, 212-mi. course at Brands Hatch, England. In his green factory Lotus, Clark spurted into the lead at the start, was never headed and took the checkered flag just 2.8 sec. ahead of fellow Briton Graham Hill in a thrilling dice that saw the two zipping around nose to tailpipe for most of the race. The win, Clark's third in five Grands Prix so far, gave last year's world champion a total 30 points in the 1964 championship, four more than Hill...
Jimmy Durante was there. So was Evangelist Billy Graham, Author John Dos Passes, Banker David Rockefeller, Senator Hubert Humphrey, Under Secretary of Commerce Franklin D.

...talked wistfully about joining the men's pro tour. "I could wear a hood or some disguise so they wouldn't recognize me," she said. > Dan Gurney, 33: the Grand Prix de France, averaging 108.7 m.p.h. in his green, Climax-powered Brabham, to beat Britain's Graham Hill by 41 sec.; at Rouen-Les Essarts.

Filing suit for one of those messy British divorces, he named Cinemactor Warren Beatty, 27, as the man with whom she had committed adultery in Chicago, Jamaica and Beverly Hills. Blue eyes somber beneath her gamine bangs, Leslie flew in to London from Paris to see her children, Jennifer, 5, and Christopher, 7. At Hall's request, a London court had barred her from taking them...
Tall, mustachioed, and very British, Graham Hill would have cut a dashing figure at the winner's stand. But the fuel pump of his B.R.M. quit just 100 yds. past the spot where Gurney sat nursing his grief. In the grandstand, the fans began to get restless. Where was Gurney? Where was Hill? Where was anybody? At last, Bruce McLaren's Cooper cleared the crest of the last hill and started down the final straight. But McLaren was only coasting: his generator belt had parted and his engine was dead. Then came a sound that made McLaren swivel...
