...picked up in Bakersfield for a service station robbery that had netted $105. There is a disparity between the superficials of this case and what Jackson claimed was the complete situation. In Soledad Brother, he said that he and two black friends found themselves locked up in Kern County Jail on suspicion of a number of thefts. "Since the opposition cleans up the books when they find the right type of victim, they accused us of a number of robberies we knew nothing about. Since they had already identified me for one, I copped out on another and cleared...
...David Merrick calls "flimflam and legerdemain to cover an awful and gloomy book about nothing at all." Fortunately, the Prince and his Follies have that other talent: Stephen Sondheim. For the musical, he has written some of the glossiest, wittiest lyrics in Broadway history. His melodies gracefully genuflect to Kern and Gershwin, Berlin and Arlen. His words bow to no one.

He passes very little and runs a lot; last season he was the team's second leading ground-gainer with 583 yds. and nine touchdowns. In six games this season...
...While Kern has appealed, a posse of friendly citizens has already galloped to the rescue. Last week more than 2,000 Texans showed up at a $5-a-head benefit barbecue, and other contributions are coming in to eke out the ransom on the high sheriff's financial future. There was no popular movement to compensate for the past injustice perpetrated on Whirl...
