...Gary upset? This is the big match of the year. His respectable punching opponent, sophomore transfer student Bob O'Neal, was willing to run through a collection of head-ons and profiles before the camera. Is it possible this could be a psyche move by the three-time champion? Or was Gary just upset because of the way the standing-room-only crowd drenched the champ in a thunderstorm of boos during his semi-final match yesterday...
...other nominees to withdraw from Hollywood's yearly orgy of self-congratulation. Scott's fellow nominees for Best Actor (Melvyn Douglas in I Never Sang for My Father, Jack Nicholson in Five Easy Pieces, James Earl Jones in The Great White Hope, Ryan O'Neal in Love Story) are all hanging right in there. The potential Best Actresses are, too.

Neal Cassady, an incidental Beat writer better known as Dean Moriarty (the hero-madman in Kerouac's On the Road ), and the subject of a 600-page character study by Kerouac, Visions of Cody, had gone off to join Ken Kesey (whom Kerouac disliked), and then had beat Kerouac to the grave...
...Desolation Angels," a chapter of snapshots and drugstore prints to go along with the volumes of words. There is a picture of Allen Ginsberg while he was still at Columbia, a spare, clean-cut, serious, youthful New York intellectual in horn-rimmed glasses. There are two pictures of Neal Cassady taken in 1946 just before he left New York for Denver after his first visit with Kerouac and Ginsberg; they're the same pictures that Kerouac describes in On the Road...
