...Beach Boys--the three Wilson brothers, a cousin, and a neighbor--are aware of the disparity between the Beach Boy image and what they actually are, but they don't mind. Dennis, the drummer, changed his concert uniform as soon as he entered the suite; and, just as easily, he has shed the 26th Street Beach obscenities and Californiaisms like "bitchin'" from his speech. During our three-hour talk, he looked like an expensively-tailored cowboy. The beige suede boots were new, as were the red gingham shirt, the black suede vest, and the levi-cut pants of loden wool...

The neighbor of one of the women connected with the Radcliffe gym has season tickets on the fifty yard line, which were generously donated to about six of our staunchest supporters. Ordinarily, this would be fine--we could see them and they could hear us and maybe their enthusiasm would be contagious. BUT, the seats were on the side of the field where the players sit; directly in back of the Boston bench, in fact...
