...longtime and loyal baseball fan that I write you to express my anger at the recent caption above a photograph of Ted Williams and Wade Boggs. The caption read "Hit 'em where they ain't." This phrase is attributable to Pee Wee Reese, a slap-hitting shortstop for the Brooklyn Dodgers in the '40s and '50s, and has absolutely no relevance to Ted Williams...
Giles' adolescent-style interest in Ronnie grows rapidly and disturbingly. Some of the best scenes in the movie are the early ones in which Giles explores creative new ways to further his infatuation with Ronnie.

It began to worry the hell out of me. I did not see how TIME could put this picture on the cover without conveying some kind of tacit endorsement. In December, I stumbled on a fine lithograph of a Catherine wheel with naked bodies hanging from it, and down in one corner a little man playing a hymn of hate on an organ, and the man was Hitler...
