Dole succeeds in containing the mirth that rises behind his eyes and tugs at the corners of his mouth. He gives an understated smile and not the Kansas yuk that helped sink the Ford-Dole ticket in 1976.

The couple met two years ago, when Winger was filming Terms of Endearment, and folks in Lincoln (pop. 180,000) have been spotting the lovebirds ever since.

As rock music pulsated through the gray-carpeted, fluorescent-lighted room, Isaacson put the race-car driver through a grueling 1 1/2-hour workout designed to strengthen his lower and middle back after injuries suffered last summer when his vehicle slammed into a wall at 185 m.p.h. in the Poconos. The punishing session included 20 minutes of fast pedaling on an exercise cycle, 60 sit-ups with a 20-lb. dumbbell across his chest, some stretching, alternate elbow-to-knee...
