A 1960 humor piece recalls a baseball fan’s fever dreams of facing stars Mel Parnell Stan Musial and Casey Stengel. A psychiatrist’s cure involves imagining a beautiful girl, provoking a witty rebuttal about missing one’s turn.
The piece outlines Sir Smith’s push with Reynolds votes to shift the race, labor board dilemmas over Tobin’s Lynn speech, and a plan to target major figures in a nationwide gambling probe. It notes B-29 Superforts being repurposed for peace time rescue missions and Senate investigators prioritizing top names in their inquiry.
In New York, bookmakers fill offices while Long Island tracks draw crowds as horse racing grows. Jimmy Yoong, a veteran restaurateur, reflects on Chinese gamblers and scarce options in a big town. The writer also praises George Horn for landmark transit feats and recalls a steak eating contest with TV hopeful Lynne Carroll.
The survey reports 22 percent of women rate faithfulness as the top husbandly trait. Other items note tires costing about $40 in 1900 with 2,009 mile life, and a 1785 congressional adoption of decimal money.
