...turned out, Ravitch's ambitious double-play pivot did not exactly match the grace of Cardinals shortstop Ozzie Smith. It took Ravitch 18 months to work out a limited revenue-sharing formula.

And though the baseball contract officially expired at the end of 1993, Ravitch didn't put the owners' salary-cap proposal on the negotiating table until mid-June.

Smith, a part-time maintenance worker at a local park, lives with his parents and intends to have his mother, a full-time homemaker, look after the girl while he is at work. Judge Cashen is known for an unswerving devotion to "family values." In the late 1970s Cashen took away custody...
Working mothers took the ruling as a personal affront and besieged women's organizations with angry calls. But Ireland still has some legal maneuvers to pursue.
