...Indian, the better and more serious piece, runs amuck. Arnold has failed to see that Horovitz was not writing just a sharp TV script about the brutal terrorization of a non-English speaking alien lost in New York. Rather, this play is foremost a work about communication. Joey and Murph, the two violent toughs, are as lost as the Indian. They find themselves in a world where their mothers are whores, love has no relevance to them, and nothing makes any sense. They must step on a helpless creature, if only to prove to themselves that they are alive...
Newest moonface to shine is Bob Murphy, 25, a 5 ft. 10 in., 210-lb. redhead who last week rolled and scrambled to a sudden-death triumph over Oklahoman Labron Harris in the $100,000 Philadelphia Golf Classic. Murph the Girth shot a twelve-under-par 276 for 72 holes, then rammed home a 15-ft. birdie putt on the third play-off hole to gain his first professional victory and the $20,000 winner's check.

Through contacts, the police began shadowy negotiations with the underworld, eventually regained nine of the stones, among them the Star of India...
...Murph Cohen and Lee Mercer will lead the Green attack. Mercer, honorable mention all-American last year, has five assists in the Green's 10-7 win over Cornell last week while Cohen scored three times. The Dartmouth attack, with ten goals in each Ivy encounter, lost All-American Mike Herriott, who scored 46 times last year, to graduation...
...never be recovered, the district attorney's office was still hopefully hunting. As for the accused three, New York D.A. Frank Hogan planned to recommend light sentences if they pleaded guilty. It is conceivable that they will serve less than one year apiece. After that, Kuhn, Clark and Murph the Surf will be able to return to their Miami haunts and regale their friends with stories of their escapades. Perhaps they will even resume the joys of skindiving among all those coral reefs. Who knows? There might be something down there besides cockles, mussels and seaweed...
