There's two gorgeous wrestlers, you see? A white one, Ricki Starr, played by Ricki Starr. And a black one called Lillywhite-don't you just love it? Ricki wears red ballet slippers and pirouettes in the ring. And Lilly has these terrific pectorals and wears a mask like Batman. He kind of falls for this absolutely sumptuous rock-'n'-roll singer, Christian, played by David Anthony. But before he can kidnap him, some wretched girls-the Touchables, they call themselves-capture Christian and spirit him away. They also steal some statues. The statues...

Dreams of Broadies. Yet the Packers come through as genial a bunch of sadomasochists as one could hope to meet. "Dr." Willie Davis, so named because he "made the women feel so good"; Max McGee, the eternal bachelor, dreaming of "a herd of broadies grazing on martinis"; Bart Starr, the resident nice guy. The types, allowing weight for age, can be found in all the best schoolboy fiction...

...face mask and wrenched him to the ground, breaking his nose. The infraction cost Green Bay a 15-yd. penalty. It cost Dallas the ball game. Obviously in pain, Meredith was only fitfully effective, seemed to have trouble finding his receivers, was twice intercepted. Meanwhile, Green Bay Quarterback Bart Starr completed ten of eleven passes, three of them for touchdowns. Final score: Green Bay 28, Dallas...

...undisputed lead in the N.F.L. Until the Dallas game, the world champion Packers had managed only a 2-3-1 record-largely because of a freak injury to their own field general. While lobbing passes in a warmup drill before the Los Angeles Rams game three weeks ago, Starr unaccountably pulled the biceps muscle in his throwing arm, watched from the sidelines as the Rams toppled his teammates 16-14. Against Detroit a week later, Starr entered the game for one play, painfully flipped a 3-yd. touchdown pass...

Abortive Appearance. This season Meredith and Starr have had more than their share of companions in pain. Indeed, the outcome of the 1968 pro football season seems to be predicated on the survival quotient of quarterbacks. As of last week, no fewer than 16 signal callers in the two leagues have been sidelined with injuries for one or more games. Many of the injuries, like Starr's, could hardly have been prevented. Pete Beathard of the Houston Oilers (record: 3-5-0) was rushed to the hospital last month for an emergency appendectomy, while winless Philadelphia's Norm...
