Show-off lads who hurtle their old Mercs around too screechingly (turning on the afterburners) are High-school Harrys. Well-dressed and popular men are cool dads and hard cats. But the answer to every coed's prayer is a king or snow job. Many a coed, dating up a storm, gets snowed (or sewed) for an infatuated spell called snow time (if her king is too cool, she may have to shovel out the snow). During this romance, only a bad-mannered gnome or mullet would try to hook a snake (ask for a date with the snow...
That a substantial number of Negro physicians, especially the younger ones, want this sort of thing was clear. A few years ago N.M.A. conventions were largely social, did not get rolling before 10 a.m.. ana only 20% of the attendance represented young doctors (out of medical school ten years or less).

An all-star high school pitcher in Oakland, Calif., Pinson has a sprinter's speed going to first (3.3 sec.), enough power to hit his share of home runs despite his lithe build (15 ft. 11 in., 170 Ibs.). Playing his first full season in the majors, Pinson leads the team in hitting (.328) and stolen bases (17), simply outruns deep fly balls. Says Manager Freddy Hutchinson: "He's already...
...Rocco and Angelina came separately to the U.S. in the early '20s from Bari, Italy, met and married in New York City. Rocky's boyhood heroes were his big brothers, Dominick and Vito, who taught him to throw and hit on the paved playing field of Public School...
