- Even while a new frontier beckons -- an ABC-TV newsmagazine
- with DIANE SAWYER as co-anchor -- SAM DONALDSON has decided to
- return to his roots. Last week he and his wife JAN bought a
- 7,300-acre ranch in Roswell, N. Mex. Said the sharp-fanged
- Donaldson: "We're not speculating or trying to subdivide the
- area. We want a working ranch, not some fruff!" Donaldson seems
- to have developed his scrappy ways while growing up on the
- family farm in New Mexico. At the age of seven, he wrote, "I
- playfully shot out a front tooth of one of the Mexican workers
- with my BB gun." And when he was twelve: "I got a kick out of
- letting the horses out of their corral so I could chase after
- them on a farm tractor. Ride 'em, cowboy!"
