...Mike Schumann and pinch-hitter Ron Cheney led off with scratch singles. Then Dick Morrison, attempting to sacrifice, bunted a low, twisting pop-up down the third base line. Emmet made a head-first dive for the ball, knocking it into foul territory, and the bases were loaded. Clearly rattled by the play, the tall lefthander walked the next two batters, forcing in two Eli runs, before he was finally replaced by Byron Johnson...
...time it lasted longer. Again I toyed with the stringless yoyo, so delightedly that I did not notice when we began to slow down. By inertial force, the sinker glided forward from my upraised left hand. My grab for it was defeated by the shoulder harness. Over the hot mike I warned Brett: "There's a lead slug corning over your left shoulder."

Bridges has quickly become the world's best-known underwater actor, picks up tidy extra income on his merchandising tie-in with a rubber company that makes "Mike Nelson" flippers, masks, snorkels and rubber boats. His 52 sponsors across the U.S. are elated with Sea Hunt's showing, will doubtless keep Bridges going off the deep end next year. He will continue to expose marine-insurance frauds, nab below-surface smugglers of aliens, rescue other hapless souls trapped in the deep, cut short careers of skindiving robbers who prey...
...appeal are now being dispelled by the Soviet Union. Ziv, biggest U.S. film syndicator, last April turned over 13 installments to the U.S.S.R. in the first swap of TV films under the new U.S.-Soviet cultural exchange program. At the moment. Sea Hunt is being dubbed in Russian. Soon Mike Nelson will be captivating the U.S.S.R.'s adventure lovers as he peers fearlessly through his mask, gurgles defiance, draws his knife...
