...denounced him so eloquently that Proconsul Paulus was converted, and his magician, according to Acts, went blind. After that encounter, Paul seems to have changed his name to its Roman form and become leader of the mission; the author of Acts begins to refer to Paul and Barnabas, instead of Barnabas and Saul...
Chess is the sort of game that mathematicians consider their own particular pumpkin pie. Many are the learned cybernetics treatises arguing that the world's best chess player may one day be a computing machine instead of a human (indeed, International Business Machines is even now perfecting a chess-playing computer).

CHARLIE BROWER does not fit the popular image of the Madison Avenue huckster. He is low key instead of high pressure, prefers brown worsteds to grey flannels, Rob Roys to Gibsons, New Jersey to Connecticut's Fairfield County, still lives in the Westfield, NJ. home that he has owned for 20 years, keeps a Manhattan apartment for himself and his wife...
