Today's youthful dissenters are accustomed to brickbats from the older generation. Imagine their surprise at receiving a bouquet from the Establishment. Wrote John D. Rockefeller 3rd, 62, chairman of the Rockefeller Foundation, in a recent article for the Saturday Review: "There is much to irritate and disturb the older generation. But there is also great potential for good. Instead of worrying about how to suppress the youth revolution, we of the older generation should be worrying about how to sustain...
...should come tiptoeing out of the tulips and into the halls of justice but Tiny Tim, aquiver with indignation. Seems that in 1952, while performing under the name Derry Dover, he made an album for Bouquet Records. Now Bouquet has released the album, with the famous Tiny Tim visage on the cover, using the title With Love and Kisses from Tiny Tim-Concert in Fairyland.

Under his low-keyed, meticulous direction, all the murdered men give subtle performances that would do credit to Giraudoux. Out standing is Michel Bouquet, pathetic yet loathsome as a pawky, balding bachelor who cannot believe his good fortune when a mysterious beauty comes to his shabby room with a bottle of strange-tasting liqueur. Scarcely less memorable is Charles Denner, a painter who poses Moreau as Diana the Huntress and gets an arrow...
