...construction of playhouses flourishes, but the craftsmanlike hand that shapes a play is often missing. The admirable revival of Lillian Hellman's The Little Foxes at New York's Vivian Beaumont Theater in Lincoln Center last week mounts character in plot as snugly as a ship's model fits in a bottle. Her saga about the greedy success of the hard-bargaining Hubbard family in the turn-of-the-century South has survived the passage of 28 years with its power to please unsapped...
...Buckley substance is forgiven for the Buckley style. "He is as brilliant an adversary as he is bankrupt an advocate," says Yale Chaplain William Sloane Coffin Jr. To M.I.T. Political Science Professor Lincoln P. Bloomfield, "he is an exceedingly witty, attractive and rather insidious spokesman for a point of view for which I have few sympathies.

Acid & Acrimony. The demonstration began under a crystalline noonday sky at the Lincoln Memorial. It took on special impact by climaxing a week of antiwar protest across the nation. Beneath the marbled gaze of Lincoln's statue, red and blue Viet Cong flags mingled with signs affirming that "Che Guevara Lives," posters proclaiming "Dump Johnson" and asking "Where Is Oswald When We Need Him?" The meeting had hardly begun before three Nazis were arrested for jumping a British trade-union orator who criticized U.S. involvement in Viet...
