...effervescent or stern, puckish or olympian, earnest or remote. Reasoner comes across as warm, witty and involved not only with the news but with his audience as well. Everything about his face - the grey-white shock of hair, shaggy temples, rugged chin, deep smile lines flanking a spreading nose - seems square, safe and reassuring in a 'chaotic world. His manner brings viewers a message that middle-class values and Midwest calm still endure...
...dingy room in a grim penitentiary, out of my mind, I looked over at the man next to me, a Polish embezzier from Worcester, Mass. I could see him so clearly, I could see every pore in his face, every blemish, the hairs on his nose, the incredible green-yellow enamel of the decay in his teeth, the wet glistening of his frightened eyes.

A solid, consistent performer, he is big enough to fight it out with a tight end, quick enough to stop an off-tackle play. Wehrli will probably be cast as a free safety because of his knack for homing in on the ball. "He's a tough kid," says one scout. "Maybe too tough. I've seen him knock himself cuckoo on tackles." The nation's top punt returner, with...
