Alan Brien of the Sunday Telegraph thought it "a serious, ambitious and valuable play which matures in the memory and fertilizes the imagination," while for Milton Shulman in the Evening Standard, it was "a stunning parable with a magnificent theatrical impact." Perhaps TIME will honor its bond with fair reportage by letting these voices be heard...

The Senate Commerce Committee is close to approving legislation that may make other safety features mandatory on '68 models, probably including headrests and rupture-proof fuel tanks...
