Kathleen E. McVey, of Holbach Hall and Wilmette, III., will study Church History, and Lynn Visson, of 83 Brattle St. and New York City, will study Russian Literature...
...fashion, Gwyllum Evans, as the mayor, uses exaggerated pomposity and self-importance to produce a cynical caricature of a corrupt Russian official. And Maureen Fitzgerald fills out his pomposity in her portrayal of the mayor's domineering, vain, and dissatisfied wife. But the scene-stealing prize goes to Lynn Milgrim as the mayor's bovine daughter.

Preston is quite right in his statement that, "It's the kind of thing Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne used to do," but I wonder if it's fair to remember that magnificent team for the cheapest of their quasi-historical vehicles. In better moments they could be found performing the works of Sherwood, Coward, Molnar, and Shaw...
