...strange as any medieval unicorn or griffin is the life and personality of Terence Hanbury ("Tim") White. He lives on the pebble-sized English Channel isle of Alderney (pop. 1,600), famed for its low taxes, cheap liquor, puffins and stormy petrels.

...league manager to bow out this year (the others: Detroit's Jack Tighe, Cleveland's Bobby Bragan, Philadelphia's Mayo Smith). Best bet to succeed him: fiery, onetime Big-League Infielder (Cubs, Dodgers, Braves, Giants, Cardinals) and Manager (Cardinals) Eddie Stanky. ¶ Calumet Farm's Tim Tarn, winner of the 1958 Kentucky Derby and Preakness, runner-up in the Belmont Stakes even though he fractured a sesamoid bone during the race, was judged incapable of carrying assigned racing weights despite successful corrective surgery, will be retired to stud in Lexington, Ky.
