...teen-age star, he had traipsed from one high school to another while his vastly ambitious stepfather hand-picked his coaches. As a college freshman, he had been auctioned off to the highest bidder and gone to the University of California at Berkeley. But Stepfather Harvey had not been pleased when Ronnie was treated as something of a rookie. Last year he brought his boy south to U.C.L.A., casually tossed away a year of Ronnie's eligibility to get him the chance of playing for Red Sanders...

His team relaxed and began to play football. In the next series of Bruin plays, pitching with an index finger painfully injured in practice, Ronnie completed two beautiful passes.

Then he is asked to testify before the House Committee on Un-American Activities, whose chairman may be assumed to be Pontius Pilate. Hollywood is the fleshpots of imperial Rome. Villainous lawyers and venal politicians ("For a thousand dollars you can buy a Senator") gnash their teeth in the wings, and of course Judas Crane lets his old party pal have it (after...
