When Big Top Impresario Matt Masters (John Wayne) takes his show to Spain, he has never told his ward (Claudia Cardinale) that her mother (Rita Hay worth) was the woman he once loved. No need to, really, because Rita has been missing for 14 years-guilt-ridden since the suicide of her aerialist husband after he discovered that her heart had been doing triple somersaults with the wrong man.

According to Maryland Insurance Agent Don Reynolds, McCloskey attended a meeting in Baker's Capitol office in 1960 to discuss his chances of winning the contract for a $20 million District of Columbia municipal stadium. McCloskey, who had sewed up several choice Government construction contracts in past years,* got the bid. Reynolds received about $10,000 for writing the performance bond...
