...Bravo!"-"Brava!" would have been more correct-20 men and women bared their chests and held up candles, lighters and flashlights so that their fellow opera lovers in the audience of 2,360 could catch their act. All were members of an antiordinance group called MASH (Memphians Against Social Harassment), formed last month by Memphis Restaurateur Paul Savarin to combat MAD (Memphians Against Degeneracy), the pro-ordinance lobby. Rudi E. Scheidt, president of the Memphis group that sponsors the Met visit each year, called the protest "a hell of an embarrassment to Memphis." But most citizens took the incident...
...Police Director John Holt insisted after the protest that the ordinance would still be enforced, he announced his own surprise: three high-ranking police officers on duty that night were put on suspension, without pay, two of them for being in the vicinity of the opera hall against orders.

The second is that in the post-op of reruns, the members of the 4077 will continue indefinitely to act bonkers, save lives and refresh viewers' spirits. Radar will lose and find his Teddy bear and, maybe, lose his virginity. Klinger will show up in that cunning little chiffon number he bought in Seoul. Frank will fritter...
...give it up. One of them called me - sit down and listen to this - "a tough, bandy-legged little mustang. " Donkey doughnuts! That Winchester can get under my old hide. I guess all of them have, and I guess they'll stay there. When I came to this MASH they looked like a strange new breed of soldier...
