“Stormin’ Norman Mailer.” Article by Maureen Rice. A & L Magazine (Ardmore, PA), 6 June, 6–7. Thin account of Mailer’s visit and speech at Haverford School, with a few quotes and several errors. Mailer explains for the umpteenth time one of his favorite expressions: “I’m an old club fighter; I get mad when you miss,” noting that when someone nails a club fighter with a good punch, he wakes up and begins to fight in earnest.
