Not only teaching methods, but organization of material, examinations, and grading standards vary from section to section, and as a result men undertaking "Math A" can never...
...wife are theatre people through & through. Alfred Lunt has worked 30 to 40 weeks a year for 23 years in the theatre, but fears first nights as the devil fears holy water, worries over the size of the audience, suffers tearful agonies if there is a hint that his performance has not been up to his best. One of the consequent duties of faithful, bustling Lawrence Farrell, once his dresser, now his play manager, is to beguile Lunt out of these funks. Farrell bounces in between acts with box-office reports, fanciful tales of extra chairs required in the balcony...
