...LONG lonely sound of the Long Island Railroad came aching down and down the track. Floral Park, Long Island was covered, silent and pure. The lost women, bundled mysteriously in snowsuits and galoshes, slipped, slithered, splashed, cursed and fell into the cold new-sprung fantasies of Long Island slush. They called to us, those strong silent people of this frontier town as they crouched proud and good against the creeping creeps of Queens. They called to us through the black ladened skies.

"If you feel sexy, you can open all the snaps," says Jean Tailer. "And if a woman has any figure problems, the dress disguises them."

...Cheers, floral tributes and demands for encores greeted the Angelenos' two concerts, not the least because Mehta had complimented the audiences by conducting one of Enesco's Rumanian Rhapsodies from memory, while Kondrashin had used a printed score. At the top, anyway, the fray was friendly. The two conductors met, joked, and talked about politics.
