...struts Mick Jagger with a snigger, dressed entirely in black, a long pinkish scarf hanging from his neck, an Uncle Sam hat straight from Chappaqua on his head. The omega-like sign of Leo, fiery and domineering, the sign of a king, is printed on his chest. "Well alright," he shouts at the audience, looking the perverse offspring of a Rimbaud or a Wilde, and like a voodoo prince he pumps his hips twice and begins to dance.

Three months later, Marianne had a miscarriage. In January, Jagger and Keith Richard were kicked out of a hotel in Lima because of their unconventional dress, or undress, or both. Bill Wyman, at 32, oldest of the Stones, was divorced...
...Mickey Mantle, one of baseball's all-time greats. "The Mick" hit over 500 home runs in his career, including one in an exhibition game in 1953 that was described as the "most spectacular drive in the 44-year history of Pittsburgh's Forbes Field." He and his wife, Merlyn, and their four sons make their home in Dallas...
