A local doctor diagnosed influenza and hopefully dosed him vith medicine. The feverish boy lay around Viracopos airport for hours before he flew, with 82 other travelers, on a Comet 4 jet to Idlewild...
...voice had been his livelihood in a career devoted to the stage, movies and TV. Then, while touring with the road company of The Best Man two years ago, playing the role of an ex-President who dies of cancer, Gargan himself began to complain of a continually sore throat. Doctors discovered he had cancer of the larynx. His voice box was removed, and what was left of his windpipe now ends at a collar-button-level hole in his neck. When he left the hospital, he was speechless. But last week, like the others at the Memphis dinner, Gargan...

The perquisites of office are $15,000 cash and a $7,000 mink coat; the duties include promotional tours of Portugal, Korea, Canada, Mexico and all points south...
Harridge could consider himself ticked off-but lightly. In his book, Veeck has his rich, full say on some other baseball figures with whom he clashed. The man who could be so tender to his players that he once gave a sore-armed pitcher $40,000 as a parting gift has bitter memories of his 1960 clash with Baseball Commissioner Ford Frick over the draft-choice plan for stocking the new American League clubs in Washington and Los Angeles. Veeck argued that the plan unfairly forced the old clubs to choose between keeping their veteran stars or their prize minor...
