...Stanley Cup since 1940. For years, a tailor named John Gerecitano has shown up at every Ranger home game dressed in a leopardskin hat and carrying a trombone; when the game gets beyond hope, he plays taps. Surprise. Last week Gerecitano was nowhere to be seen in Madison Square Garden-only 15,542 fans who chanted "We're No. 1!" as Forward Rod Gilbert slammed in two goals and the Rangers swept into the N.H.L. lead by winning their fourth straight, 4-1, over the Detroit Red Wings...
Esquire magazine ran a full-page color portrait of the Three Wise Men seen as contemporaries: they turned out to be Evangelist Billy Graham, Playboy Hugh Hefner and the psychedelic professor, Timothy Leary. Cosmopolitan advised readers suffering from "holiday neurosis" to consult a psychiatrist for Christmas. The lead piece in the Reader's Digest concerned a housewife so exhausted by her Christmas chores that she finally broke down alongside her dishwasher: "Tears filled my eyes.

And the Virgin is no longer hieratic and remote; she is instead a distillation of young girlhood and Bavarian beauty...
...rarely seen at the "in" Restaurant-of-the-Month, never swings at the Racquet Club in Palm Springs. She doesn't play the tables at Vegas or pick up a cue in the billiard room of the Beverly Hills Daisy; where Frank Sinatra bides his time, she abides not. If she isn't at home, she is likely to be found with her four-year-old daughter at Hamburger Hamlet or at the Los Angeles Zoo or at a local art gallery. Her night on the town is the Bolshoi or a concert at the Hollywood Bowl...
