Antic: opening conversation at the banquet here by studying, as he sat between them, a list of conventions prepared for him which included the one that he must not open the conversation...
This is just 1,000 times what the first Waring orchestra drew down for its first engagement, in Tyrone, Pa., 21 years ago. Fred, 18, was then in Penn State, studying architecture and engineering.

But it was news last week when one of the parts was offered to antic, woolly-wigged Comedian Harpo Marx. The proffered role: "an immobile figure plunged into the depths of total despair, who then emerges from his state of hallucination and goes into paroxysms of the most frantic choreographic delirium...
