...fell in love with him," the pale, soft-spoken woman told a hushed Manhattan courtroom. If it sounded like the familiar tale of the innocent girl and the wily seducer, conditions were different enough to make it the juiciest trial in town: the defendant in the $1.25 million malpractice suit is a psychiatrist, Renatus Hartogs, 66, who writes an advice column in Cosmopolitan magazine. The plaintiff, Julie Roy, 36, alleges that she paid for standard psychiatric help but instead got 14 months of "sex therapy" from her analytic guru...
GILBERT AND SULLIVAN are among the most important of the minor pleasures of life, and Harvard would be a spiritually poorer place without its G & S society. Like any company devoted to performing a canon of works over and over, some years it must forego the juiciest operas and stick with the second-rate.

Keane, chairman of the city council's powerful finance committee and friend of Mayor Richard J. Daley. The story had all the ingredients of classic muckraking: secret land trusts, gigantic tax breaks and windfall profits from sales of choice public land. As the inquiries broadened, other city leaders were implicated. The series−five months in the making−was an example of investigative journalism...
...SUPPORTING CAST has, in human terms, the juiciest roles--and takes full advantage. Tony Abatemarco's General Ivolgin, Michael Gury as his healthy and Jack Gilpin his tubercular sons are effective both singly and as a divided family, just as Geralyn Williams and Eleanor Lindsay, Madamae Yepenchin and Aglaya, form anice bourgeois setpiece Josh Rubins is hilarious and vile as the obnoxious Lebedev...
