...that. Playing with a combination of power and brains that left defenses wondering where he would strike next, the Cal tailback scored 14 touchdowns, averaged 132yds. rushing per game, and caught 37 passes for 354 yds. this season. He could well be the No. 1 draft choice of the pros next month. He helped carry California to their best record (eight wins, three losses) in 24 years...
...years ago, but it features moments of comic brilliance rarely matched on the Harvard stage. The scene in which two Lords try to decide which will win the hand of fair young Phyllis is superbly executed, with Jeff Zax and Clifton Lewis playing off each other like pros. Dennis Crowley mades an equisitely tormented Lord Chancellor, Susan W . Van Colt and Douglas Morgan as the straight leads have a beautiful pair of voices, and Sallyu Stunkel plays the Queen of the fairies in a style pleasantly reminiscent of Glinda, the Good Witch in The W izard...
Sportswriters share a special occupational hazard: they are both addicted to athletics and regularly reminded how far they fall behind the pros (and a good many amateurs too) in speed and agility. Staff Writer Philip Taubman, who wrote this week's cover story on football's Pittsburgh Steelers, is a weekend tennis buff, but he has warily declined opportunities to play Jimmy Connors and other stars he meets while working. Reporter-Researcher Jay Rosenstein had a typically humbling experience while interviewing the Steelers' defensive tackle "Mean" Joe Greene at his Texas home for this week...
...been given the nod as number two in the country because, among all of last year's Eastern powers, the Terriers have been the least hurt by graduation, defection to the pros, or selection to Olympic teams. Ten of their top twelve forwards return, as do six of the top seven defensemen. Brian Durocher and Pat Devlin are back to man the nets again...
...first bodacious attempt to out-Neiman Marcus, Sakowitz last year offered a pricey choice of lessons from top pros in just about every sport or hobby the loved one might care to cultivate. But such instructional experiences as a day's guitar lessons with Jose Feliciano ($14,500) found no takers. Obviously the price was too low or the gift too evanescent, so this year's catalogue is more hardware-oriented. A French "wine château," for example, is going begging for $875,000. Another tempting bauble is a 63-acre Caribbean island 25 miles south...
