...Dody Goodman, corn-fed elf and professional birdbrain, whose irrelevance and irreverence were fun until Paar got rid of her in an unseemly family squabble (TIME, March 24). Elsa Maxwell appeared for weekly off-with-their-heads chats, chopped at so many well-known necks (including Winchell's, Presley's, Princess Grace's) that Jack was only half kidding when he rolled his eyes and groaned: "Call the lawyers." For a few frenetic nights, Zsa Zsa Gabor leaned over her cleavage and rattled her host into some now famous fluffs. "It will cut him!" she squealed...

Hightailing it back to barracks at Fort Hood, Texas, after a gay evening in Fort Worth, geetar-thumping Private Elvis Presley and three companions were innocently chugging down Highway 81 in his plain ole red-and-white Lincoln when a fan pulled alongside to see if the civvie-clad driver was really the great man at large. Interpreting the glance as a drag challenge, Elvis kicked down on the throttle with the fan in hot pursuit. Also on the trail was an interested state patrolman, who flagged Elvis and fan at 75 m.p.h. (in a 55-m.p.h. zone), gave them...
