...depredations of Corny Dogs and Bar-B-Q mystery meat burgers and loomfuls of pink cotton candy? Even those barbaric relics of carnival days, the sideshow freaks, are still present. Hear the saw-throated barker cry of the Headless Body Beautiful: "Yessir, folks, step right up and see Lola, the living, decapitated victim of a hideous automobile accident!" There is the Frog Boy, and Giant Hong Kong Rats, and a "gen-ewe-ine female cannibal," ominously billed as Zoma the Depraved. And, of course, there is the terrible, eternal Alligator Lady: "She walks, she talks, she crawls on her belly...
Adolf Hitler's mistress was a pudgy, middle-class blonde who gloomed more than she glittered. Yet her name will go down in history alongside such famous and glamorous kept women as Lola Montez, Madame de Pompadour, Nell Gwyn and the Du Barry. How did she manage to catch der Führer's eye and remain with him until their joint suicide in the Berlin Reich chancellery? Photographs from Eva Braun's personal album, published in the London Sunday Times magazine last week, give few new clues to her mysterious charms. The collection shows Eva riding...
This car was followed by a succession of Porsches, and Gregg, now a Porsche dealer, is under contract to drive these cars in endurance races. Last year he campaigned a Lola in the Can Am series, but the car was badly damaged in a crash during practice for the first race. In this accident Gregg suffered the only serious injuries of his career, a dislocated toe and a cracked shoulder.

Best cleavage forward, Yvonne De Carlo (real name: Peggy Middleton, of Vancouver, B.C.) steamed her way through Hollywood, sometimes seriously but often as conscious self-parody. The wife of Hollywood Stunt Man Bob Morgan and mother of two boys, De Carlo, 48, is an exemplar of the John Wayne philosophy: go west and turn right. "The whole company kids me," she says. "They call...
Andretti snaked around the 3.2-mile course at an average speed of 109 m.p.h., fought his way past tenacious Mark Donohue in a Formula A Lola-Chevrolet and then closed on the leader, Scotland's Jackie Stewart. Executing a neat passing maneuver on the 31st lap, he gunned by Stewart's blue Tyrrell-Ford and won going away. The second heat was more of the same as Andretti bested Stewart by a 12.3-sec. margin. After accepting his $39,400 winner's prize, Andretti suggested that the U.S. Formula A team could take some consolation from...
