...somewhere between the tea ceremony and the kosher sukiyaki won the heart of a Japanese gentleman. The Zulu and the Zayda made color-unconscious buddies out of Menasha Skulnik and a Zulu tribesman. In Don't Drink the Water, a touring New Jersey caterer (Lou Jacobi), his wife (Kay Medford) and daughter (Anita Gillette) temporarily take asylum in a U.S. embassy in a country much like Hungary. In one extraneous scene, the caterer dresses down an Arab oil sheik for being cruel to his Arab subjects. As the episode suggests, Jews have a slight edge in these comedies, perhaps...

Nicholas von Hoffman was brought to town from the Chicago Daily News and now travels from one ghetto to the next to assess the miseries of slum life. Hired from the New Republic, Wolf von Eckardt provides some...
...Post itself, Kay Graham, for one, is convinced that whatever its remaining faults, her paper is winning and stimulating readers as never before. For evidence, she has only to cite President Johnson, who reads the Post's first edition the last thing before going to sleep, then reads the last edition the first thing on waking up. For a President who is not known for his love of the press, he pays the paper a rare compliment. It plays the news, he says, "right down the middle...
