Most of the score seems to have been written in invisible notes and dissolving lyrics, although two numbers, I'll Never Be Lonely Again and If I Ruled the World, have a plaintive and perhaps durable charm...
...fast that he could have watched himself on instant replay. Minnesota Second Baseman Frank Quilici opened the third inning with a double, then Drysdale fell down trying to field a bunt, and by the time the Twins got bored, eleven men had batted and six had scored-three of them on Zoilo Versalles' 400-ft. homer into the leftfield bleachers.

Sophomore Halfback Garrett Ford chipped in with TD runs of 5 yds. and 58 yds., while Pitt Coach John Michelosen moaned, "I've never seen so many perfect...
