...South Pacific) Michener (missing: wiseacre Pianist Oscar Levant, who now lives in California). After the familiar cockcrow and the challenge to "Wake up, America, time to stump the experts!" Video Veteran Fadiman (CBS's This Is Show Business) tried hard to settle his team into the old fluid pace of the radio series...
...Maureen went right to work. Again & again, her sharp-angled shots left Veteran (29) Brough standing flatfooted on the baseline.

He was the first pitcher in either league to win eleven games (one loss). Off and running at a faster clip than Grove's fabulous 1931 pace, blond, blue-eyed Bobby Shantz, 26, is getting the ultimate compliment from buzzing Philadelphia fans: "As good as Grove." On the early season record, he is better: in six of his victories he allowed only one run or less; his earned-run average is an impressive...
