Deplorably but inevitably, the Great White Hope, sometimes pronounced Hype, has been made the theme of prizefights between blacks and whites as far back as barges. Cooney's handlers regularly bring up the issue to denounce it. Their slogan: "He's not the white man, he's the right man." Cooney seems to have an authentic aversion to the subject and generally says nothing. The way black Promoter Don King and Holmes talk, Cooney is just the same traditional white emissary who has been sent against the black savage since James J. Jeffries hurried out of retirement...

The early leader was seven-term Congressman Barry Gold water Jr., 43, of Los Angeles, whose famous name has enormous appeal for the state's conservatives. BARRY GOLDWATER FOR THE U.S. SENATE, A TRADITION goes his slogan, and one TV spot shows him sitting on the Capitol steps with dad.

Citizens who had chafed, sullenly and silently, under military rule for five months took to the streets in a nationwide affirmation of their disapproval of Jaruzelski's regime. Chanting "Down...
...dreamers' choice in the Derby was Cassaleria, a one-eyed colt with claustrophobia, the solitary member of the "20/20 Stable" (slogan: "Thine eye has seen the glory"). Cassaleria is another star-crossed son of Pretense, the father of poor Sham, who would have won any other Kentucky Derby and most other Preaknesses but finished second to Secretariat on both occasions in 1973. One of Cassaleria's first bobbling steps after birth tumbled him into a fence post and poked out his left eye, leaving a sorry-looking fleshed-over socket...
