...Phoenix, installed in some luxury at the Hyatt Regency, wearing jeans, a belt buckle the size of a locomotive headlight and a fine-looking Stetson. He and the 23 other members of the Cowboy Artists of America are having a show and sale at the Phoenix Art Museum. Beeler and John Hampton, who was born in New York City-dropped down the wrong chimney by the stork, he says-and two other men founded the group back in 1965 to tip the odds on Western art in the direction of survival. Last year the 14th annual sale brought in over...

...remember Bill Campbell's shrill voice at the mike when Chico Ruiz stole home to give the Reds a 1-0 victory and start the Phils on their nine-day September '64 nosedive. I recall reading the front-page story about Richie Allen putting his hand through a headlight while trying to push his car, thus ending the Phillies' season before it began.
