When I played tennis at West Park on 96th Street

one of the members was Billy Talbert, a two time  U.S Open Champion. One day after the Bobby Riggs/Billy Jean King match had been announced, I heard someone ask Talbert what chance Billy Jean had against Bobby. He said. "No chance, no way he doesn't win." What a chance for Hai Karate I thought.

 

Tom and I flew down to the Astrodome for the big match.

There was also a big delegation

of Pfizer big wigs. About mid- match, nervous account people started asking me what was wrong. In the aftermath, the brand manager was invited off the company plane!
