...price for Starbuck alone, but there's more. John W. Loofbourow interviews the Poets' Theatre personified in an enlightening dialogue marred only by a pedantic reference to Latin drama in the Elizabethan universities. Of 21 or so drawings by Joyce Reopel, Kaffe Fassett, Zero Mostel, Arthur Polonsky, Lynn Schroeder, Jane Nichols, John Wilson, and Renzo Grazzini, more kind words might be said, but that would require another review...
...Chief of Staff, bluff, gruff General Curtis E.

The pristine Tarzan of the screen who hated all white men-although his name, in Burroughswahili, meant white (tar) man (zan)-is now the champion of modern medical science. Tarzan 1958 knows a simple defense against the slings and arrows of mumbo jumbo. His prescription: "Take pill quick...
