...course, they insured Olivia de Hav-illand's jaw and Durante's nose, but what Lloyd's of London likes to cover best is a pair of legs. First they took on Grable's gams, then insured Marlene Dietrich from toe to thigh. Now Angle Dickinson, 32, Captain Newman M.D.'s favorite nurse, has got a policy on her props. Her studio thinks they're worth $1,000,000, or about $15,000 per well-turned inch. Nice round figure...

...game, so he tears the earphones off the boy's head in an attempt to hear what is being said on the eaves of doom. The precipice man is still wobbling there when Arthur's peripheral vision picks up George C. Scott, who is walking with set jaw, lips in motion, toward a mad parolee with a gun.

Sonny landed a left and a right to the body, a hard left to the jaw and followed this with a rare right uppercut.

...four were rudely surprised when a vigorous and confident Cassius answered the fourth round bell. Advancing against Liston for the first time in the fight, Cassius began to dominate the action with stinging left jabs thrown from every angle.
