...Tee Off. At 64, Hope is the Will Rogers of the age, a kind of updated, urbanized farmer's almanac of political and social currents. Rogers was the sly rustic, a humorist with a lariat; Hope is the self-caricaturing sophisticated comic with a paradiddle patter. Rogers was show business, and so is Hope, and they share the same understanding of what is unique in American humor: a healthy irreverence for pomp and position. And they both succeeded by pitching their personalities across the footlights to touch their listeners with something close to folk wisdom. Some of Hope...

Billy Casper, Sam Snead, Gary Middlecoff and Julius Boros all are experimenting with aluminum clubs, and George Archer claims that his new aluminum-shafted driver gives him an extra 15 yards of distance on every tee shot.

"As I turned my shoulder, taking the driver back, I also turned my head." Presto! Next day on the practice tee, Jack concentrated on keeping...
...Castro, Guerrilla Expert Che Guevara and "Carlos" Marx glowered from windows and walls of office buildings. Banners were strung here and there with the slogan: IF YOU WANT TO BE A REVOLUTIONARY, START A REVOLUTION. One of the proudest achievements of Castro's revolution-Havana's Coppelia Tee Cream Parlor-was dishing out more flavors (54), as it likes to boast, than even Howard Johnson does. In the crowded dining rooms of Havana's five "luxury" hotels, three waiters orbited eagerly around each table, smiling broadly, rushing about with plates piled with steaming food and refilling water...
