When players like Bernard Gilkey, Ray Lankford and Todd Zeile didn't have the Class-A team winning, Patkin was there to keep the crowd hanging around anyway...
...what about the mimes? A trio of French clowns, Les Macloma, is tiresome in its first two appearances, beguiling in its third (a snatch of music played on two balloons and a one-string violin). But John Gilkey, Quidam's emcee, is a gawky delight, especially in a dance routine with a hat rack. Gilkey knows that the body is a deft comic instrument, even as the charming Chinese girls who do the "diabolos" routine (spinning a toy on a string while prancing nonstop in short skirts and Tin Woodman hats) know how to make this precision aerobic workout seem...

Gilkey agrees with Boston College Philosopher David Rasmussen that, for Catholicism, Lonergan may be the liberating force that Friedrich Schleiermacher was for 19th century Protestantism. But for liberal Protestants, Gilkey notes, Lonergan could provide something of a brake to excessive subjectivism...
