Saturday, in cold, rainy weather, Walt Hewlett ran sixth in the two-mile run, but recorded his fastest time in almost a year, 9:02.1. Ivy League nonpareil Chris Pardee had a bad day and could only clear 6' 6" in the high jump, finishing third to his nemisis, fellow seven-footer Frank Costello from Maryland...
...weather Lothario gets his comeuppance from a free-thinking London model (Jane Merrow) who smoothly beats him at his own game. She lets him drive her Buick Riviera and invites him to her father's luxurious summer home, where one of her donnish young Establishment pals sneeringly trounces him in a tennis match.

It was still 70° at 8 p.m., and 50,761 excited fans jammed the city's new $18 million stadium to watch the Braves take on the Pittsburgh Pirates in the season's first...
