He majored in football at Kansas State, claimed that friction with his coach cost him a nomination for the Heisman Trophy, and quit school minus his degree. Pro offers were paltry, so Herron went to Canada. There he led the Canadian Football League in rushing but failed to awe the Winnipeg police.

In June 1964, she announced in Hong Kong that she had been married twice-once by a ship's captain, once by a Buddhist priest-to longtime Traveling Companion Mark Herron. Then she said no, she hadn't at all, when it turned out that her marriage to Hollywood Producer Sid Luft had not been dissolved.
