David Cassidy's autobiography is sparking a Partridge Family feud. Cassidy, who played heartthrob Keith on the '70s TV show, explains why he didn't pursue co-star Susan Dey: ''She lacked the slutty aspect of a female that I always found so attractive,'' he says in C'mon Get Happy. Dey isn't pleased. ''I found it to be a tremendous, terrible violation. And tacky. Real tacky,'' Dey says in the Aug. 20 issue of TV Guide. ''My first reaction was, 'That poor, desperate soul,' because I was asked to write a book like that years ago, and I said, 'No, that's not what I want to do.' '' Dey said Cassidy's book won't affect their relationship. ''There is no relationship.''
