...topless swimsuits, and while Yo-Yos and Hula-Hoops were fine for kids, this year's midsummer madness does absolutely nothing to weed the men from the boys. Policemen, politicians, churchmen all had their views, from the Tel Aviv cop who swore that "no nice Israeli girl would wear them" (25 suits had just hopped off local store racks) to Acapulco's mayor, who announced that if they turned up on his beach, "I would go to see them, naturally." The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. Michael Ramsey, 59, when asked...
...first thing Bauer did was fine Outfielder Willie Kirkland $300 for being three days late getting to camp. ("Whew!" said Kirkland, and it sounded suspiciously like relief.)

Private enterprise is hot; public debt is cool, Iago is cool, but Othello hot. Girls who wear glasses don't get passes-because they...
...brutish and short. Her mother was domineering and obsessed with sex; her stepfather was a sponging promoter of fake gold mines. Jean's second husband, Producer Paul Bern, shot himself two months after the wedding. She could not act, but her platinum hair, husky voice, and refusal to wear a brassiere were enough to gross millions at the box office for Howard Hughes and Louis B. Mayer.
