...Sacramento, U.S. Attorney Dwayne Keyes said there was an "assumption" that Fromme had been part of a conspiracy because of the "close connection of the [Manson] group." In Los Angeles, Deputy District Attorney Stephen Kay said flatly: "I think Charles Manson had a hand in it. It's very easy to slip messages in and out of prison." Indeed, officials at San Quentin prison near San Francisco, where Manson is locked up, acknowledged that the mass murderer had frequently corresponded with Fromme by regular mail. A prison spokesman said that Manson had learned of the act through the prison...

Kay's reconstruction of continental movements in 1948 showed that the boundaries of North America were delineated over 400 million years ago by undersea volcanic upheaval.

...SCENE in which luncheon is served by Snorty and Kay, now disguised as a maid, is the funniest in the whole play. Soup is inevitably spilled, plates dropped, and strange crashes are heard from the direction of the kitchen, "Oh, that must be the salmon." McGee explains to the guests. "The cat's had it on the floor three times already." Snorty's calm, almost scholarly manner makes a nice counterpoint to all the chaotic running around, and Maxwell's subtle performance is a welcome break from the usual mugging...
