...only American taxpayer getting weary of digging deep to pay for foreign aid to countries whose feeble efforts to collect income taxes from their own citizens reminds one of a Keystone Cops comedy [Sept. 1]? It's a shame that Gina Lollobrigida isn't as generously endowed with a sense of civic duty as she is with anatomy...
Arnold Schulman's A Hole in the Head is a rather good addition to the corpus of laughter-and-tears drama. It is not a thesis play; nor is it a deep one. The author chose the just-plain-folks, people-in-the-house-next-door, it-could-happen-to-you genre, set within the framework of a specific middle-class cultural milieu--the sort that has tempted many American writers, with varying success, ever since Abie's Irish Rose...

When laymen say that someone died of a broken heart, they really mean a broken ego. Physicians agree that a deep blow to one's personality may lower physical resistance in some cases. Poorly handled losses have already been pointed to as triggers for many diseases, including cancer, tuberculosis, ulcerative colitis, heart failure. Question remains: does ego-damage really precipitate illness...
