...pleasant. (As I'm a sucker for spirituals, even for fake-cheery ones. I found the Negro's (Leonard Easter's) "Feelin'Good" more than pleasant.) All the parts are essentially ham turns, and they're played until every last ounce of fat is caught. The choreography is, appropriately, elbow-swinging and gymnastic (except for a nice, modest ballet by Debbie Coleman). The new Leverett House Old Library Theater, with its small scale and wood panelling, is quite cozy--one enters through the stage, which is attractively cluttered with Jack Hanick's set: bright, upended trapezoid canvases lining the staircases...
...look at the Senator by accompanying him to London, the Middle East and Moscow. Austin has also talked politics with Muskie from Thomas Point, Me., to Capitol Hill.

Trevino's people are taking to the fairways in record numbers. Once the pastime of the privileged, golf is played today by 12 million Americans on more than 10,000 courses. When the pros arrive in town, duffers stand ten deep to see how Casper cocks his elbow on the backswing or Player plants his feet for an uphill lie. Since an average of 10 million viewers watch the weekend tournaments on TV, today's pro golfer must be part showman and part salesman for one of the fastest-growing sports in the U.S. No one is more aware...
