...DROP OF ANOTHER HAT is a chatter-and-patter revue by two stage personalities, Michael Flanders and Donald Swann, who might have come through the looking glass. They lead their devotees through a wonderland of whimsy, where, among other things, a nearsighted armadillo falls in love with a tank...
...bounced down the aisle of Peking's Great Hall of the People, dressed in a tailored People's Liberation Army uniform topped by a soldier's fur hat. She sat in the front row near Premier Chou En-lai and Foreign Minister Chen Yi, who did not seem to mind when the cameras left them to zero in on her.

In Michigan, Governor George Romney donned a Cossack hat, commandeered a lumbering National Guard half-track and, grandly manning the turret, cried out encouragement to the citizenry as he rode to the state capitol. In Gary, winds off Lake Michigan piled up 15-ft. snowdrifts, and Indi- ana's Governor Roger Branigin mobilized a National Guard unit to clear...
