...home run right off the bat: the perfect note played on a party horn. Then the bottom of the inning kept on that way, fast and farfetched. Mitch Webster singled and Ryne Sandberg was up. Out of the rightfield stands popped Morganna, the floppy exhibitionist with the unmissable kisser, racing for the batter's box on mincing old-ballplayer feet that brought back the newsreels.

From Sunday to Saturday, he bicycled across 397 miles of Iowa, pausing only for an emergency trip to Phoenix to attend the funeral of a legislative ally. "They told me this state was flat," mumbled the tall, lean presidential hopeful, as he and his wife Hattie forced their Schwinns up a series of long, steep hills.
