BILL SNYDER HAS THROAT CANCER

Bill Snyder has throat cancer. This would be bad news if this were not Bill Snyder, an immortal who can make windbreakers last for decades, and if he had not already received a good prognosis from his doctors in Kansas and at M.D. Anderson in Houston.

Treatment will not interfere with his schedule, according to a statement Snyder issued where he was so prairie-polite that he apologized to his family for having to share it publicly—while he was telling people he had cancer.
