...that seemed to drop right into the viewer's martini. At one point, when Billy Casper and Arnold Palmer were tied for the lead, Arledge split the screen and showed them putting simultaneously on different holes-a touch of drama that neither the golfers nor the gallery could savor. Significantly, many golf writers no longer cover a tournament by tromping around the course; they sit in the press tent and watch...
American Dream. Most important, the Mission Rebels' education programs are giving kids who have had no pragmatic preparation for life a chance to savor the exploding, surreal, plastic inevitable.

Gallup gave him a 1% edge over Michigan's Republican Governor George Romney-though he trailed Romney by 9% less than four months ago. Harris showed him leading both Romney...
...hints of lurid reminiscences about Proust and Picasso, Stravinsky and Nijinsky, the author does not intrude upon their saintly privacies. He also rarely allows the reader to enter into his own. He speaks from a distance, less confessor than professor, looking up from his lectern every few moments to savor appreciative glances...
