That was the way things usually did work out for James Moore Tatum. He won. One of nine children-and the last of five left tackles-born to a merchant-banker-farmer of varying fortune in McColl, S.C., Tatum was sent to the University of North Carolina by an uncle, was rugged enough (6 ft. 3 in., 200 Ibs.) to get an All-America mention or two in his senior year on Coach Carl Snavely's powerhouse.

Every U.S. businessman knows that espionage is as much a part of corporate competition as it is of international intrigue-but few have ever been willing to admit it. Now the businessmen, soothed by a promise of anonymity, have confessed all.
