...least as deep as, say, Radical Feminist Ti-Grace Atkinson's. What emerged instead was the image of Phyllis Schlafly as defender of the traditional values, defender of the home.

Another famous former RKO star couldn't make it but sent his best. He starred in Cattle Queen of Montana in 1954 and Tennessee's Partner in 1956 for the studio, but Ronald Reagan, 71, was busy playing...
