...flubbed two easy chances in the field just as his portrait appeared on TIME'S cover. Long-memoried readers sometimes remind us that Leo Durocher's year-long banishment from baseball started with his cover in April 1947, that Golfer Ben Hogan lost the Los Angeles Open the week of his cover in 1949 and that undefeated Navy was stunningly upset by S.M.U. in 1963 as TIME'S cover on Quarterback Roger Staubach went to press.

Money is already pouring in from her Alice's Restaurant Cookbook (Random House; $5.95), which has a first printing of 40,000 copies...
