Ecevit was clearly not about to seek that kind of accommodation with Demirel on his own. He is a poet-warrior who studied social psychology and Middle Eastern history at Harvard and wrote the words to his own campaign song, Harmony (sample verse: "Cloud to the sky, rain to the cloud, soil to the rain, how well in harmony"). After a huge celebratory party at the R.P.P.'s yellow stucco headquarters on Ankara's Farabi Street (once home of the Turkish intelligence agency), he plunged into talks to see whether he could form an effective government.

The implication, indeed, is that these colorful visions persist amid the gray rubble of the ghetto just as the human spirit persists amid intolerance...
...costumes from South Pacific, Gypsy and, of course, Hello, Dolly! Briefly joining the high jinks onstage were the likes of Yul Brynner, Burgess Meredith, Joel Grey and Geoffrey Holder-who kicked up their heels in an all-male chorus line. When it was over, Ethel, 68, sighed, "Fm on Cloud Nine," and Mary. 63, was still savoring the roars of the audience. "It was like we had hit twelve home runs at Yankee Stadium."
