...described a U.S. Eagle Scout from Iowa. Yuri was born on a collective farm near the small town of Gzhatsk, 100 miles west of Moscow.

Moran-whose own wife is Arline-lives in a sprawling, nine-room ranch house in Lincolnwood. a Chicago suburb, with Arline and the three children (two girls, a boy). He has three motorboats. a summer home in the country and a winter home in Florida, and a 30-ft. by 60-ft. swimming pool that he shares with youngsters once a week, hiring a lifeguard to watch over them...
