...Marty Ransohoff, 35, likes B.O. plenty. His Beverly Hillbillies is a smash. But Marty's first two films, Boys' Night Out and The Wheeler Dealers, didn't snag quite as much customer coin as he had hoped. So in The Americanization of Emily he decided to trot in three nudes, tagged Broads 1, 2 and 3 in the script. And when the Motion Picture Association Production Code Administration refused to take the broad view and ordered some snipping Marty sounded arty, almost. "The code," he huffed to a reporter, "should be more mature and reflect modern morality...
...rate, Kenya seemed well on the way to solving its unemployment problem. To qualify for veterans' benefits, Nairobi's neediest only have to trot out of town, drape themselves in a monkey skin and return chanting a Mau Mau jingle.

Three Cleveland players formed up to make a convoy. Jimmy circled behind them, throttled down to a casual trot for his third TD of the afternoon. Marveled Giant Defensive Captain Andy Robustelli: "We had him, and we still couldn...

Their music is a bland mix of broad harmonies, familiar tunes, corny humor and just enough of the folk music spirit to cash in on the most avid adult record buyer-the man whose ear has been tuned by popular music but whose developing tastes lead him to folk music. Where the purer folk singers such as Joan Baez and Pete Seeger alienate some audiences with their austerity, the impure...
