When it comes to celebrations, folks in Spartanburg, S.C., do not limit themselves to just the usual American holidays. Last week, for instance, a few days after the Fourth of July, they all turned out for Bastille Day. French Consul Jacqueline Dietrich borrowed a spit from a German neighbor, ordered supplies from Franz Kastner's gourmet delicatessen (Perrier water, lox and asparagus), invited the Swiss consul and representatives from Spartanburg's 40 European companies to celebration and song. Rudolf Mueller, manager of Menzel, Inc., a German-owned plant that makes textile machinery, was not there this time...

...performance as Carr. Finally, the end comes, and Carr and the woman he married a long time ago in Aurich waltz stiffly onto the stage. Carr reminisces about Zurich, Lenin, Joyce--knew 'em all, he tells us smugly. No you didn't, says his wife, you weren't even consul. Somebody named Percy was. Never said I was, Carr retorts. But again he tells us, sure, knew 'em all. Three things I learned in Zurich: You're either a revolutionary or you're not, and if you're not, might as well be an artist...
