...Hyman Bookbinder, a longtime leader of the American Jewish Committee, declared, "Many of us feel that what Pollard did was a mistake, wrong, a crime, a sin . . . and what the Israeli officials did was wrong to initiate and even dumber to continue." Even normally pro-Israel U.S. legislators were embarrassed by Pollard's protestations that he had a "moral obligation" to spy for Israel. Such statements, said Florida Democratic Congressman Lawrence Smith, "are deeply distressing to American Jews, particularly those in the Government or close to it."

...Globe's season contains no such archival curiosities. Instead it features star turns by Brian Bedford in Richard II, Earle Hyman and John Vickery in Julius Caesar and Paxton Whitehead in a revival of Beyond the Fringe. But the repertory also meets one of Artistic Director Jack O'Brien's longstanding goals, a world premiere of a substantial new play staged by him.

Flouting the rules is no way to get ahead in an institution steeped in tradition. But Admiral Hyman G.
