Some Satisfaction. Though Sadler departs before he intended to, he can take satisfaction from a 27-year career at American that began as a ramp agent. For one thing, the situation that prompted his earlier resignation has long since been settled. Financial Vice President William J. Hogan, who held about as much power as Sadler and reported to Smith, has retired, leaving the president to run the airline-with Smith's blessing, of course-pretty much in his own way. Beyond that, as a man who worked his way up through sales jobs and has constantly kept passengers...
Something New. Successor Spater springs from a completely different background. Born in Detroit, he studied law at the University of Michigan ('33), spent his time in corporate practice until he joined American in 1959 as general counsel. During the feud between Sadler and Hogan, Spater was given more and more responsibility, ended up as a natural successor to both.

Jackie Gleason says that "Bob's only departure from sanity is his insistence that he can beat...
Like most duffers, Henry Hook tried everything. He bought Jack Nicklaus golf clubs, Arnold Palmer golf gloves and Ben Hogan golf shoes; he memorized Gary Player's Positive Golf, watched Dow Finsterwald's Golf Tips on TV, and visited a Sam Snead Driving Range three times a week. He used balls with rubber centers, steel centers and liquid centers, switched from a cash-in putter to a bull's-eye putter to a mallet-head putter. And he still couldn't break 100. "I don't understand it," he complained. "I played worse last year...
