...Eugene O'Neill wanted the uncoordinated, lengthy manuscript of this play destroyed. Somehow a copy survived, and has been subjected to the surgery of José Quintero, who manages to make the great U.S. dramatist appear as inept as a summer-stock apprentice. As a husband, wife, and mother fencing for one another's love, Arthur Hill, Colleen Dewhurst and Ingrid Bergman all appear lost in a disenchanted forest...
Apologetic Points. Next day it was back to Pnompenh for an audience with the Prince's mother, Queen Sisowath Kossomak. It took place in the Royal Throne Room, a fairy-tale chamber of nine-tiered parasols that shield a great gold throne beneath ceilings depicting ancient Asian tales incongruously set against French classical landscapes. After an exchange of gifts, Jackie was escorted outside under a purple parasol to feed the royal elephants, whose grasping trunks she approached gingerly...
...memory piece, the play's setting is a cheerless gin mill somewhat reminiscent of the bar in Saroyan's The Time of Your Life. The narrator hero (Warren Berlinger) recalls how from earliest childhood he had been brought to the bar night after night by his mother (Betty Garrett), who is driven by a masochistic thirst to watch her butcher husband (Warren Gates) while away the evenings with a waitress floozy (Peggy Pope). In her firmly devoted way, the mother believes that the boy should get to know and understand his carousing father. It is a futile hope...
...devised by Dr. Vincent J. Freda and Dr. John G. Gorman of Columbia University, working with Dr. William Pollack of Ortho Research Foundation, the new technique is to vaccinate the mother immediately after the birth of her first Rh-positive child with a blood fraction containing other people's anti-Rh antibodies. These stifle development of a lifelong "active" immunity and in stead provide her system with a short lived "passive" immunity, and her system is far less likely to develop virulent antibodies. So far, reports Ortho, of 825 women treated with the fraction, only one became sensitized...
Medical researchers have now found a surer and simpler way to protect the second child by inoculating the mother during a crucial three-day period following the birth of her first child. Heretofore, the problem has been that during childbirth, the bloodstream of the Rh-negative mother is invaded by hundreds of thousands of the red blood cells of the child, each carrying the factor that makes it Rh-positive. During the next few weeks, her system reacts to the foreign cells by developing active antibodies that can then attack the blood of all subsequent children...
