Lionel Stander is a shaggy young Jew of Russo-German descent whose sudden rise to cinematic fame in the past year can be traced, like so many others in Hollywood, principally to a misspent youth. Too independent to follow his father's profession of public accountant, he ran away from school at 14, earned his living for five years as cab driver, lifeguard, reporter, tile setter, office boy, bank clerk.

Lieutenant Knox (Randolph Scott), head of a police traffic department, meets...

Horton and Davis Truxton Wilber, to either: 1) the release of a potent chemical, acetylcholine, by nerve ends in the tired muscles, or; 2) a sudden excess of calcium in those muscles...
