...Iowa, where endless acres of plump corn awaited harvest last week, the GOP is looking forward to a bumper crop of its own. The latest polls give Richard Nixon a 2-to-l lead over Hubert Humphrey. The GOP also has hopes of capturing the Governor's mansion, both state houses, and six of Iowa's seven seats in the House of Representatives. To avert a total rout, dejected Democrats are looking to a lone champion, Governor Harold E. Hughes, 46, a craggy-jawed former truck driver who is battling hard to avoid being buried under an anti...

The greatest moment comes at the climax of the play when Orgon discovers that the trusted, devout Tartuffe is a hypocritical lecher thirsting after his wife. As Tartuffe lunges forward to embrace her, the virtuous lady steps quickly aside and Tartuffe lands in her husband's no longer quite so fond embrace...
