...FUNNIEST SCENE STEALER The blind camel who upstaged Co-Stars Warren Beatty and Dustin Hoffman in Ishtar, the $40 million-plus bust-of-the-year, and thereby proved that big salaries ($5 million apiece for Beatty and Hoffman) do not necessarily produce either big laughs or big bucks at the box office...
...three World Series in six seasons. "It seems when they get things going," sighed the San Francisco pitcher Mike Krukow, "they're a carousel. They just keep chiming in runs." But knowing they took the season and the playoffs largely with pitching at the end, Cardinals Base Stealer Vince Coleman cautions, "You have to establish a hitting game before you can establish a running game...

The eldest, Princess Anne's son Peter Phillips, 8, did a game job of managing both his troops and the bride's train, but the show stealer was Prince William, 4. During the 45-minute ceremony, he played on the cord of his hat like a fakir's apprentice, wrapping the string around his nose and chewing it like a licorice stick. Undaunted by baleful stares from his mother and grandmother, he pulled out his miniature ceremonial...
