...movie, sometimes cutting from character to character as though he were taking an opinion poll. Linking political and social history to the girls' private affairs also creates momentary strain, since the audience cannot really profit much from learning that the German army has attacked Poland just after good ole Pokey (Mary-Robin Redd) delivers her second set of twins. Although The Group's McCarthyish airs are trivial as sociology, more dazzling than deep as drama, no sorority party in years has dished out so much trenchant and exhilarating tattle...

Near the end of the play, each of the "heroes" reveals himself--Doc is a con man, Billy is a J.D., Wyatt felt it was his calling to murder, and Wild Bill, good ole Wild Bill, is queer.

It is the middle-aged man's answer to rock 'n' roll, and it is called Ameriachi...
Also in February, a group of Young Democrats was organized at the University of Mississippi. It is around this contigent that the present MDC-backed faction is built. Cleveland Donald, a Negro from the integrated YDs at Ole Miss, and Hodding Carter III, on leave from the Greenville, Miss., Delta Democrat Times and presently a Nieman Fellow at Harvard, are the cochairmen of the moderate delegation to the New York convention...
