When Michael Todd's raw and raucous Peep Show opened on Broadway a fortnight ago (TIME, July 10), Critic John Chapman of the New York Daily News wrote a balanced review, praising the show's pretty girls but deploring Todd's vulgarity.

"Muscle Man" Stranahan's big drives made the difference. He was consistently hitting his tee shots 30 to 50 yds. farther than Chapman, thus forcing Chapman to play first on approach shots. This gave sharp-eyed Stranahan a good chance to see what the wind was doing to his opponent's lofting second shots, calculate his own with the information in mind.
