...Guests: Joan Sutherland, Delia Reese and Stan Kenton...
...lovely day in 1961, and in a springtime mood the students at Pennsylvania's little Allegheny College waited for their distinguished guest speaker, U.S. Supreme Court Justice William Orville Douglas. A slender, brown-haired Kappa Kappa Gamma named Joan Carol Martin was especially anxious. After all, Joan was a political science major, an honor student who was deeply interested in juridical philosophy-particularly as expounded by Justice Douglas. Introduced to Douglas by an Allegheny professor, Joan escorted him about the campus. She was duly impressed, and charmed...
...Didn't Say Yes, a Greenwich Village triangle, with Joan Hackett, Joan Caulfield, William Redfield and Peggy Cass, was praised by Boston Critic Elliot Norton as "the most promising new play on the summer theater circuit . . . idiotically funny."

No one expects Van Cliburn's 1963 opening-night figure of 14,000 to be topped this season. The concerts run an annual deficit of $80,000 to $100,000, but that is a minor problem as long as Lewisohn's spiritual and financial...
