...people." Lack of artistic freedom ("I'm the lost soul of you chappies") drove Chayevsky to Hollywood. "I didn't make hardly any money out of the movie Marty," he rumbled. "But we had a ball and it was fun." As examples of what TV -"a malevolent juggernaut that's gonna chew me up"-will no longer let him do, he muscularly cited some unusual themes: a woman relieving anxiety over menopause by "throwing a pass" at one of her son's friends; the emotional pattern of an American Communist; the tortures of a man discovering...
...League. Quarterback Frank Finney is the league's leading passer (outshining even Cornell's Tom Skypeck last week) and a good runner as well. Don Warburton--captain, center, and linebacker--is Brown's mainstay on defense, and 205-1b.

There is something horrifying in this monstrous juggernaut rolling over every sensitivity to its sure triumph . . . The most worrisome aspect of the whole Graham phenomenon, perhaps, has been the failure of nerve in men who know better, the atrophy of critical faculties. Worst of all has been the drive to smother opposition, to engulf critics, to surround criticism. In the good name of unity, Billy and his friends have pressed for a dangerously anti...
