...three town ladies with pretensions to virtue, the Lady Fidget of Christina Pickles comes off best, though more vocal modulation would help. As her sidekicks Mrs. Dainty Fidget and Mrs. Squeamish, Grayce Grant and Joan Pape provide their quota of amusement. Curt Dawson and Ronald Frazier (who likes to smoke a long clay pipe) are a trifle bland as Harcourt and Dorilant, two gallants who envy Horner's success. Rex Everhart, as Sir Jasper, is foolish enough but lacks class, and should be told that the game is blindman's-buff, not blindman's-bluff. David Rounds, with beauty spots...

...byplay--such as the masturbatory caressing of a staff, the tossing about of a large rubber phallus, the snagging of a staff in a codpiece, the goosing of a tart with a loaf of bread, and the kneeing of an officer in the groin by a brothel-keeper. Ronald Frazier is amusing enough as Elbow, the malapropistic constable (a type better managed in the Dogberry of Much Ado About Nothing); and so is the clowning tapster Pompey of Rex Everhart, who has been doing such roles for the AST off and on since its first season. Gene Nye turns...

Going into the N.B.A. finals against the New York Knicks, the Los Angeles Lakers figured that their primary goal was to stop Walt Frazier, who led the Knicks through the first two rounds of the play-offs with a sizzling average of 24 points a game.

But the Knicks have made a religion out of the old locker-room slogan "There is no I in TEAMWORK." As Knick Captain Willis Reed pointed out: "Any guy might...

...What Frazier got, for starters, was a bad case of humiliation. As Frazier goes, so go the Knicks, and, hounded by the relentless West, Frazier went nowhere. The Knicks' leading scorer was only able to make one meager field goal in the entire first half. DeBusschere and Bradley, who led the Knicks with 25 and 24 points respectively, helped close the scoring gap in the second half, but Reed proved no match for the indomitable Chamberlain, who plucked rebounds like so many oranges off a tree...

Finally the Knicks managed to put it all together in one of their patented comebacks; they closed to within three points in the final moments. But then, with 40 seconds remaining, the harassed Frazier threw the ball-and the Knicks' hopes-away. Led by West, who outscored Frazier 24 points to 12, and Goodrich, who contributed a game-high total of 30, the Lakers...
