...TACKLES: Kevin Hardy, 21, Notre Dame, 6 ft. 5 in., 270 Ibs. and Loyd Phillips, 21, Arkansas, 6 ft. 3 in., 241 Ibs. "A stud" is the way admiring pros describe Hardy, a draft-eligible junior who not only bulwarked the Irish defense but also punted for an average of 42 yds., and is the only athlete in 20 years to letter in three sports (football, basketball, baseball) at Notre Dame. Phillips is "too light to play tackle in the pros-he'll probably be switched to linebacker." But his attitude is strictly professional: "Football is his whole reason...
John Doe, 47, a tenement-dwelling Midwesterner in hock to the corner delicatessen, pursues solvency at the horse parlor and the poker table.

Assagai, for his part, shared an illustrious ancestor (Man o' War) with France's Behistoun and Silver Shark. Silver Shark, in turn...
...occasionally overdone. Edward Zang's cynical Scandal is always restrained yet his open disdain for the slithery lawyer Buckram (Bernard Wurger) is still as funny as anything in the show. Wurger himself smoothly handles a three minute conversation from a blackhatted Puritan lawyer to a shyly drunk self-acknowledged stud. Gerald McGonagill as the addled astrologer Foresight, when calm, is also entertaining...
...hand for the Beatles at Shea Stadium, stopped off to buy a new Honda Hawkeye for faster mobility through traffic, and was ad-libbing at an outdoor park fashion show, backed by the blasting rock 'n' roll of a Yale combo known as the Five-Card Stud, when he got a call from the mayor. A bit petulantly, Lindsay told Hoving that he'd like a little advance notice; Lindsay himself would like to make the scene...
