...University of Hawaii, he met a pert drum majorette named Trudy Olson. Among Trudy's attractions: she owned a third interest in a Piper Cub and taught flying. They were married in 1947; and today they fly in their own Beechcraft Bonanza (Cooper is the only plane owner among the astronauts). Their daughters. Cam, 14, and Jan, 13, sometimes take a supervised turn at the controls...
...quickly became known as a crafty and patient "sit-still" jockey who liked to hang back behind the pack waiting for his horse to settle into stride, then drive from behind to win.

And many families make their second car a used one. Good Until August. Because of the bigger demand for used cars, there are fewer bargains to be had. Prices...
...winner's circle, Chateaugay was still so frisky that he looked ready to run another 1¼ mi. He tossed his head, kicked angrily when a groom tried to drape the traditional garland of roses around his neck. Richer by $108,900, Owner Galbreath, whose Pirates that day had beaten the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-0, to take first place in the National League, wisely kept out of range. Why ruin a lovely afternoon...
