...THROUGH JULY. President Eisenhower invited the Kremlin to send a delegation of U.S.S.R. scientists to sit down with U.S. and British scientists in Geneva for a joint study on test detection. The Kremlin accepted, then tried to back out. Finally, when the U.S. said its scientists would show up at Geneva with or without the Soviet representatives, the U.S.S.R. okayed the talks, sent Communist scientists to the conference room...

Their joint act swung endlessly between tragical melodrama and slapstick farce, was happiest and steadiest whenever they left Greenwich Village behind and settled in Provincetown or New Jersey. Then O'Neill would shed the trembling toper and turn into the contented craftsman, in bed by 11 every night, at work sharp at 9 in the morning. He so hated to be interrupted in his work that he would hide in a closet when company came...
