...performance was rhythmically vital from the beginning, and built steadily to the end. Hathaway did seem to be rushing the orchestra at many phrase-endings, providing no relaxation or feeling of settling before continuing, but still the Haydn was a success. The entire concert was a credit to the ability and versatility of the Bach Society...
Nikita's successors, Party Boss Leonid Brezhnev and Aleksei Kosygin, have taken a more sympathetic view of Stalin's historical role. The motive is not entirely clear; perhaps B. & K. are reluctant to let Red China take all the credit for Stalinism, or perhaps it has to do with inner Kremlin politics. In any case, they have not only looked the other way to avoid noticing the statues and paintings of Stalin that still adorn many a Georgian town and hotel, but they have even restored Stalin to the history books.

He has conducted a disorganized, lackluster campaign, which admittedly lacks Rockefeller's financial resources. To his credit, O'Connor has taken a few more liberal stands that Rockefeller (e.g., stronger support of the Civilian Review Board for New York City), but this is counterbalanced by an anti-civil libertarian record in the State Senate during the 1950's and an undistinguished performance as Queens County District Attorney and New York City Council President...
