...Falk, who for a dozen summers had produced plays in New England Mutual Hall, decided to throw in the towel after losing money the past two summers. Stepping into the gap came the Boston Summer Playhouse. The first offering, a dreadful item called Fair Game, was given an insultingly inept performance. After a quick reshuffling of plans, the Playhouse bounced back with a fairly amusing production of F. Hugh Herbert's delightful sophisticated comedy, The Moon is Blue, in which Frank Langella and Frederick Morehouse '59-3 performed with considerable skill. Jan de Hartog's The Four-poster, a series...
...When National Chairman Paul Butler told him flatly to accept 1,500 tickets or lose the convention to an Eastern city, Pauley resigned, and a new committee, formed by National Committeeman Paul Ziffren and headed by former Secretary of the Navy Dan Kimball, accepted Butler's terms.

A prime item, whereabouts unknown: the jeweled scepter of Egypt's King Tutankhamen (14th century B.C.), valued at a cool $3,000,000. Taking his ease in Rome, Farouk murmured: "Let them say what they will. These are things that do not interest kings, but only lawyers...
...pluperfect, but most of the picture is a pretentious bore. The pre recorded songs seem unable to locate Lanza's lips, and some of the arias might even have been scraped off old Lanza sound tracks. The only new number, a "Jamaican rock 'n' roll" item called Pineapple Pickers, summons little of the old Mario magic and all of the old mannerisms: aggressive smile, athletic nostrils, orbiting eyeballs and quivering poundage...
