Morrie McPherson, of Sycamore, Ill., lucked into one of the biggest beer-can bonanzas in B.C.C.A. history: 60 cases of 25-year-old Goetz Country Club cone-top cans-all unopened-that had been lying in the musty basement of an old bar.

...play written by an actor's playwright. Everybody gets a meaty part with lots of juicy speeches. The three old hands in the cast avail themselves fully of their dramatic opportunity. Louis Turenne heads up the company with his amusing and robust portrayal of the "superabundantly vital" and philosophic underwear manufacturer. Bramwell Fletcher follows closely behind as Lord Summerhays, the fiance's father, a charming old aristocrat still foolish and alive enough to suffer at the hands of an unfeeling young Hypatia...
