...South Carolina, it is unpardonable for a red-blooded citizen to be neutral on Big Thursday. On that momentous day, by decree of state law and with the State Fair as a backdrop, Clemson College (enrollment 3,200) fights it out on the football field with the University of South Carolina (enrollment 4,000).

Ivan is not only Yale '47, ex-U.S. Navy and grandson of the late John Jacob Astor; he is also the spiritual heir of a hundred proud Orthodox princes of Muscovy. Ivan's father, Prince Serge Obolensky, renounced his own Czarist title to become a U.S. citizen, eventually became manager of Manhattan's Sherry-Netherland Hotel. But even though Colonel Obolensky married an Episcopalian Astor, he brought his son up strictly in the Orthodox faith and hoped he would marry...
