...millionaire auto-parts manufacturer who dedicated his fortune to putting Britain's green racing colors into the lead on Formula I Grand Prix auto circuits, built his first Vanwall racing car in 1954, two years later won his first victory at the Silverstone International Trophy race with Stirling Moss at the wheel, and reached a peak in 1958 when his Vanwall beat the Italians and Germans in six out of ten Grand Prix races for the championship; of pneumonia; in London...
...same funny gesture twice and stop your laugh -- and then never does. He's the one with the rubbery face and the fedora. Charles Degelman, always a delight on stage, played Luciao in blue stripes. His friends, also dressed modly, performed less and paraded more. In larger parts, Mary Moss as Isabel and John Appleby as Angelo brought out the best in each other. She was passionate. He responded. She recoiled violently -- she wanted to save a brother, not receive a lover. He hated her rejection, became brutal. I'd go see the scene twice more. John Mac-Fayden...

In East Moss Point, Miss., Baptist Preacher Dennis McDonald paid a sudden, proselytizing visit to Mrs. Laura Pendergrass, a member of the American Sunbathing Association. She was partly naked; he was wholly shocked. All of which earned Mrs. Pendergrass a $50 fine and a suspended sentence of 20 days in jail. Equally shocked, the Mississippi Supreme Court unanimously voided her conviction. Not only did the puritanical preacher ignore a "no trespassing" sign, bristled the court, but he also stayed to gawk for 45 minutes despite his self-proclaimed "purity...
Street Arab. Toward the end of her Fair Lady run, Julie and Tony Walton got married. He had become a noted stage and costume designer in London, and for a brief moment Julie considered retiring. "But," as Tony says, "work was the only thing she knew." And besides, Moss Hart, with Lerner and Frederick Loewe, authors of My Fair Lady, wanted Julie to play opposite Burton in Camelot, a stylish retelling of the Arthurian legend. Camelot lacked the magic of Fair Lady, but audiences loved it. Julie had a ball too. Recalls Burton: "One night a large, woolly...
