    Aargh. I fixed the printed version, left this blooper in the emailed
    version:

    < Freer, we learn, wears the face of Jim Thorne, Indian, finest American
    athlete of the first half of the last century. (So? The thorn and the rose?
    The Glastonbury thorn? On and on it goes.) >

    That would have been cute as Clute, but alas the US athlete's name was
    actually Jim Thorpe (not a fact big on the horizon of an Aussie). Thus I am
    confounded, again.
