...moods and dreams. It is at once nostalgic, disappointed and good natured. It is also perhaps the best orchestrated song in the history of musicals. Jonathan Tunick has done a spectacular job of orchestration throughout, but "The Girlds Upstairs" tops everything. This song and "Too Many Mornings," a love duct sung by John McMartin and Dorothy Collins, are the best things on the record. Sondheim's lyrics are really magnificent, tender and clever at the same time, and the songs always belong to the characters who sing them.

...weeks ago, the teachers searched the lounge and found a bugging device hidden behind a heating duct; the wires led directly to the office of School Superintendent Charles Murphy. Two more bugs turned up in a washroom adjoining the lounge.

There was also the problem of the bile ducts. The donor liver had come with its gall bladder and ducts attached. Rather than attempt a dangerously delicate joining of the common duct to the duodenum, Moore decided to attach the new gall bladder itself to the duodenum, allowing the bile to bypass the common duct. The entire operation took eight hours. Not until Tommy Gorence was sitting up and eating well, apparently making a good recovery, did the Brigham publicize the case. Tommy made good progress for four weeks, then ran into difficulties with a lung infection, a common complication...
