...Homage to New York (once) in the sculpture garden of the Museum of Modern Art in 1960. Despite the efforts of the fire department, his machine destroyed itself. Since then, his bolt-and-nutty contraptions have been more durable. His Dissecting Machine (opposite page) is a gleeful guillotine a gogo, a Grand Guignol comment on man as the victim of his own existence. Says Tinguely: "Life is play, movement, perpetual change. From the moment life is fixed, it is no longer true...
...last 16 years, the Yankees have lost the American League pennant-both times to Al Lopez. He won in 1954 with the Cleveland Indians, a team that batted .262, slugged 156 home runs and won a league-record 111 games.

"This is not a playboy's town...
Though I have never seen Bert Lahr play the part of Gogo, I am sure Micky Deems has, more than once. His movements and even his voice are uncannily like Lahr's, except that, unlike Lahr, Deems has never been quoted to have said, "I don't understand a damn word in the whole play." His performance is splendid. Dan Morgan plays Didi in the manner of a surly, gravel voiced straight man. Though he has only two movements on stage--a mincing goose-step and a tugging at his bagy trousers--he is perfect for the role...
