...simplicity of emcee Pete Seeger along with Ali Akbar Khan and the Kweskin Jug Band saved the Sunday night concert. Khan displayed an amazing command of the sarod and improvised brilliantly, building a raga that totally engrossed the third of the audience that was seriously listening...
...just like the Alamo." And he records some presidential double-edged scorn: Handing the Dominican government back to Juan Bosch, said Johnson, "would be like turning it over to Arthur Schlesinger Jr." Geyelin alludes to Johnson's scorching private appraisals of De Gaulle, Pearson, Shastri, Ayub Khan, U Thant.

Anne Bancroft (in a role vacated by Patricia Neal when she suffered a stroke) plays a tough mission doctor who drinks, smokes, tells truths that hurt, and ultimately saves everyone else by giving herself in concubinage to the lustful Khan (Mike Mazurki). Flora Robson, Anna Lee and Mildred Dunnock view her sacrifice with tolerance, lining up against Margaret to plug the thesis that in moments of stress a hard-headed broad may be more blessed than a God-fearing prude. It's worth a second thought but hardly...
