...hold up a good deal better. The stories are certainly interesting--how DiMaggio related to his teammates, how he held up under the pressure of the batting streak, what he did with himself in retirement. But it just doesn't seem to go anywhere specific. And sometimes it is remarkable in its total simplicity. We're never told why DiMaggio remained completely enraptured with Marilyn Monroe, 13 years after her death, even to the point of ending his relationship with longtime best friend Toots Shot, when Toots made a disparaging remark about Marilyn.

When pressed for assurance that a "gimmick" did not figure in this case, Bok limited himself to a slightly ambiguous last remark: "The Corporation would very rarely approve a gift of money, and I was present at that meeting and I do not remember any such issue being discussed...

The presiding judge flew in by helicopter just before the three-minute ceremony, and other helicopters hired by excluded newsmen continued to whir overhead. That prompted one of Bronfman's closest neighbors, former New York Governor Averell Harriman, to remark, "They really ought to be shot down." The bride ignored such interruptions. Wearing a striped chiffon dress and large white hat, she skipped spiritedly across the lawn after the ceremony. The guests sipped Perrier Jouët, a Seagram champagne. And amid all the display, a family spokesman described the bride...
