Cuccia and the Multiflex were obviously made for each other. The coach had Cuccia taking snaps in the shotgun, then throwing or running. Grizzled press box veterans watched for a while, then began to realize that Cuccia was running single wing--a remnant of football's leather helmet days resurrected for the Multiflex...

Mainly, Church portrays himself as Idahoan to the core. A campaign leaflet shows him in Western garb toting a shotgun, by a barbed-wire fence.

There are six or eight drivers in most of Scott's classes. The first day is devoted to shooting up an old Buick with a 9-mm machine gun, an automatic pistol and a 12-gauge shotgun so the students will be familiar with the firepower available to the "opposition." Most slugs easily penetrate the side of the car. Then four of the class put on crash helmets and seat belts for an initiation run around the track in one of Scott's four new, high-performance Chevrolet Malibu police cars...
