...When Basilio clinched, Fullmer wrestled him about as he pleased and tossed in an occasional elbow for old time's sake. In the 14th, eyes glowering behind scarred, gnarled brows, Basilio took a right hand that staggered him back against the ropes. He swayed there for seconds before somehow managing to advance again.

...reaching for his flick knife"-has been a target of Fleet Street snarls for months. What had suddenly turned the snarls into a shrill chorus of rage was President Eisenhower's approaching tour of Western Europe's capitals and a surge of British fear that Adenauer would somehow persuade Ike "to keep the cold war alive." To the Daily Mail (circ. 2,071,054), Adenauer was reminiscent of Adolf Hitler, "who ranted and raved to show what a great man he was."

He had failed as a father, Bing confessed to a Hollywood columnist. Somehow the strict discipline, the skimpy allowances, and long hours of hard ranch work to which he subjected his boys had not had the desired effect.

Trapped. Author Warren's revelatory cave is in the Tennessee hill country. Lying near by, as the book opens, are a pair of boots and a guitar. Warren describes them at length, with a simplicity and precision that is somehow ominous-and a little too mannered not to be irritating. Their significance becomes clear when a country boy and his girl, wandering through the woods with their minds on country matters, see the boots and realize that they belong to the boy's brother. The news spreads in the nearby town that Jasper Harrick is trapped...
