1. Other people served longer terms as U.S. President, and other people served longer terms as governors of their states, but he amassed the longest combined tenure as governor and President.

WOODROW WILSON???

4. A statue of this actor stands in front of the Port Authority terminal in Manhattan.

MARLON BRANDO??? (I'm thinking for On the Waterfront, no other reason.)

5. In 1984, this track star shared Sportsperson of the Year honors with a female gymnast.

Not Jenner, that's too late, I'd think.

6. One of the most prominent 20th century physicists to never win the Nobel Prize, he once told an interviewer, “"My name is not Strangelove. I don't know about Strangelove. I'm not interested in Strangelove.”

I would think it's either Oppenheimer or Teller.



8. In a seminal 1762 book, this philosophe wrote, “The passage from the state of nature to the civil state produces a very remarkable change in man, by substituting justice for instinct in his conduct, and giving his actions the morality they had formerly lacked.”

RUPERT MURDOCH??

I would guess Keynes and Friedman are the two most popular economists of the 20th century -- but I'm not sure which this clue describes.

16. The title characters of this dramatist’s most famous play are the Father, the Mother, the Stepdaughter, the Son, the Boy, and the Child.

Been too long since I've read it, but it could be Six Characters in Search of an Author, in which case the answer would be Luigi Pirandello.

17. This quarterback led his team to a 73-0 victory that has been called the most one-sided game in the history of professional football.

SID LUCKMAN

20. She got something she wanted on June 1, 1533; she lost something she needed on May 19, 1536.

Got to be one of Henry VIII's wives.

21. He became a nationally known figure after the untimely passing of Mr. Kachellek, Mr. Heyer, Mr. Schwimmer, Mr. Weinshank, Mr. May, and the brothers Gusenberg.

numbers are about right for the St. Valentine's Day massacre. AL CAPONE?




25. He is the only figure enshrined in both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the National Inventors Hall of Fame.

LES PAUL?

29. This Dominican-born infielder has made the All Star team seven out of his twelve seasons in the majors, including five consecutive appearances.

F. SCOTT FITZGERALD

47. In 1935, this Akron physician had a fateful meeting with a failed Vermont businessman.

This is the Bill W. story, about the founder of AA, but I know neither Bill's last name nor the name of the man he met in 1935.


50. Laws in spectroscopy, circuit theory, and thermochemistry are named for this 19th century Germany physicist, who also coined the term “black box radiation.”

I would think it would be Max Planck, but he doesn't fit the rest of the clue very well.

51. This cartoonist once commented, “The sweetest revenge has been to turn Fidel's accusation of me as a spy into a moneymaking venture."

SERGIO ARAGONES??

52. His total of 38 Number One hits on the Billboard country music chart is exceeded only by George Strait and Conway Twitty.

CAT STEVENS


73. This chemist may be considered one of the architects of the modern world thanks to his invention of polyoxybenzylmethylenglycolanhydride in 1907.

Pretty sure that's just a fancy name for plastic, but I don't know who invented it.

74. This musician served as the drummer on such albums as Eliminator and Afterburner.

FRANK BEARD -- the only one without a beard.



83. Following what has become an annual tradition, Carnegie Hall will hold a concert this month honoring this mezzo-soprano on her 83rd birthday.

MARION DAVIES?

86. Joel Grey was to this actor as Edith Evans was to Albert Finney and David Johansen was to Bill Murray.

I didn't know Joel Grey was in a version of A Christmas Carol, but that's got to be what this reference is.


88. A unit of electrical potential is named after this scientist who, in addition to his electrical experiments, also discovered methane.

Only unit of potential I know of is the volt, hence ALESSANDRO VOLTA. Did not know he discovered methane, though, so that's not a certainty.

91. This guitarist, songwriter, and member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame probably never performed “Ole Man River,” “Look for the Silver Lining,” or “The Way You Look Tonight” – but he was named after the fellow who wrote them.

Jerome Kern wrote those three, but I don't know the answer to the whole clue.

I didn't know Joel Grey was in a version of A Christmas Carol, but that's got to be what this reference is.

If that's the case, then this is George C. Scott.

RENOIR

[Pastor Fireball]

77. The year 2017 will mark the 10th anniversary of this comedian’s gig on a popular game show.

Could be Howie Mandel. I think Deal or No Deal premiered around 2007.

[Pastor Fireball]

I'm looking at the Associated Word List early. Already, I can tell that they're anagrams of surnames. So it looks like we're gonna be taking somebody's first name and one of the anagrams below to make the second halves of the pairs.

Rap = Arp
Dr. No = Dorn
Deer = Reed
Horse = Shore
Lhasa = Halas
Austin = Unitas
Harlem = Mahler
China = Icahn
Israeli = Salieri
Roman = Ramon, Maron, or Moran
Angel = Nagel
Bruin = Bruni
Ranger = Garner
Rebel = Berle
Diver = Verdi
Oilman = Milano
Nurse = Unser
Yenta = Taney
Virgin = Irving
Citrus = Curtis
Stew = West
Sobbing = Gibbons
Homeric = Mochrie
Ode = Doe
Wire = Weir
Cigar = Craig
Yoga = Goya
Salon = Sloan
No More! = Moreno
Hell, Yes! = Shelley

[Estonut]

57. This New Zealand supermodel appeared twice on the cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, twelve years apart.

Elle MacPherson?

Elle MacPherson is an Aussie. This has to be Rachel Hunter.

Nurse = Unser

So, we match Al Capone with Unser to get Al Unser (Jr.) who won the Indy 500 driving for Roger Penske.

[silverscreenselect]

77. The year 2017 will mark the 10th anniversary of this comedian’s gig on a popular game show.

Could be Howie Mandel. I think Deal or No Deal premiered around 2007.

No, it's Drew Carey on The Price Is Right and that matches up with Colin Powell and Homeric for Colin Mochrie.

[silverscreenselect]

84. This two-time middleweight champ was scheduled to play himself in the movie Somebody Up There Likes Me, but he was replaced after he knocked out Paul Newman for real.

ROCKY GRAZIANO

This can't be Graziano since Newman played Graziano in the film and if they actually thought of casting Rocky in the lead role, he wouldn't be sparring with Paul Newman.

It could be Tony Zale because the timing is right, and he had a notable fight with Graziano.

It would also match with Citrus (Curtis) and Albert De Salvo for Tony Curtis, who played De Salvo in the movie The Boston Strangler.

So, we match Al Capone with Unser to get Al Unser (Jr.) who won the Indy 500 driving for Roger Penske.

Looking over some of the other names, this match probably isn't right.

I think Roger Penske goes with Yenta (Taney) for Roger Taney, best known for the infamous Dred Scott Supreme Court decision.

[Pastor Fireball]

Replacing my previous post with matches:

Sobbing and Wire from the anagrams list will make a pair of rock stars, Billy Gibbons (with Frank Beard) and Bob Weir (with Jerry Garcia).

[silverscreenselect]

One more.

James Bond goes with Cigar (Craig) and Daniel Defoe for Daniel Craig.

[kroxquo]

59. This Hockey Hall of Famer was the first NHL player to play twenty seasons – all of them with the Boston Bruins.

RAY BOURQUE

Bourque played his last season with the Avalanche. Might it be John Bucyk?

And here's the Al Capone reference. I should have figured it out immediately when Bugs Bunny was an answer but Al Capone goes with Bugs Bunny and Roman for Bugs Moran, the employer of the gentlemen who were dispatched in the St. Valentine's Day Massacre.

[Pastor Fireball]

51. This cartoonist once commented, “The sweetest revenge has been to turn Fidel's accusation of me as a spy into a moneymaking venture."

Who did SPY VS SPY

The Cuban-born Antonio Prohias created it. And he leads us to Antonio Salieri (Israeli).

[Pastor Fireball]

Denmark = Kramden

And Jackie Gleason is here! We just need a Ralph.

[silverscreenselect]

Johnny Mercer + Austin (Unitas) = Johnny Unitas, goes with Raymond Berry.
