Morris outstretched his arms for the 49-yard catch and a first down that allowed the Crimson to run another minute off the clock. He also began to show that Wilford would have other targets this year besides Patterson...
DIED. ALLEN FUNT, 84, creator of Candid Camera; in Pebble Beach, Calif. Funt started the hit show on the radio after experimenting with concealed microphones in the Army during World War II. Candid Camera aired on TV, on and off, from 1948 to 1990.

...suit, filed in L.A. Superior Court, Bochco says Fox sold the series to its fledgling FX cable network for a puny $400,000 per episode. (ER, by way of comparison, was sold into syndication to TNT for $1.2 million a show.)

Four writers, including Love Story's Erich Segal, invented bizarre universes for the Beatles to stroll through, and designer Heinz Edelmann dreamed up creatures whose beguiling oddness suggests a collision of Dali and Dr. Seuss. Seen now, in a long-overdue video release, the film registers as an obvious inspiration for Sesame Street, Monty Python and MTV, and is a delight on its own. Thirty-one years on, nothing in feature animation has matched its endless...
