...four (who have paid about $110 for a day at the park). In the SuperStar Television show, you guest-star in ingeniously integrated scenes from I Love Lucy, Today, The Ed Sullivan Show or General Hospital. On the 90-min. Studio Tour you don a yellow slicker and become skipper of the good ship Miss Fortune, buffeted by wind and water. As a "Foley artist" in the Monster Sound Show, you desperately improvise sound effects to accompany a comedy thriller, then dub your voice to match the moving lips of Clark Gable or Jean Harlow -- and listen in giddy horror...

Branch Rickey and Miller Huggins were good baseball men and members of the bar, but the A's skipper has had trouble finding comfortable acceptance among his tobacco-splattered peers. In his THE BALLET SCHOOL T shirt, under his NO CIGAR SMOKING PLEASE sign, La Russa sometimes yearns to be a little more like Lasorda, who sometimes yearns to be a little less like Lou Costello.
